Summary of disease report for October 2014
109 Reports from veterinary practices and laboratories were received (Mpumalanga 14; Gauteng 4;
Limpopo 8; North West 9; Free State 21; KwaZulu-Natal 17; Eastern Cape 10; Western Cape 17;
Northern Cape 5; Feedlot 2 and Laboratories 3).
Internal parasites
![Page 5: Landbou … · 1 | P a g e The following practices and laboratories (109) submitted reports in October 2014: Mpumalanga (14) Balfour – dr. Louis van Jaarsveld Bethal – dr. Hardus](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042918/5f5ce0a2fb9e317d2e7c94da/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

Roundworms
There was an increase in the number of reports regarding internal parasite infestations. Plettenberg Bay
reported a severe outbreak of a cattle bankrupt worm infestation in calves. Reports of mortalities due
to wireworm infestation were received. Familiarise yourself with the five point check how to clinically
diagnose problems with worms. http://landbou.com/kundiges/vra-vir-faffa/die-vyfpuntplan-en-
famacha-stelsel-vir-inwendige-parasietbestuur-in-skape/
Test anthelmintics for parasite resistance using the faecal egg count resistance test (FECRT) as one
veterinarian wrote in a report: stock farmers are losing the battle against resistant roundworms. Talk to
your veterinarian about all aspects of parasite control in order not to lose the battle.
Flukes
Animals that grazed in vleis during the winter where water bodies are prevalent will be infected with
liver fluke. Discuss control and management programmes with your veterinarian. Signs of a liver fluke
infestation is a bottle jaw and anaemia.These signs are very similar to a wireworm infestation.
Immature conical flukes cause a severe diarrhoea. Be aware of this clinical sign as reports were received
from large parts of the country.
Cysticercosis (measles)
Reports were received from Mpumalanga, North West and the Western Cape. Great losses occur when
carcasses are condemned or degraded at abattoirs.
Source the origin of the infestation and install preventative measures. Train workers regarding the life
cycle of Taenia saginata, the human tapeworm.
Turning disease, caused by a cyst (Coenurus cerebralis) on the brain, was diagnosed in goats in
Upington. The tapeworm is present in dogs and other carnivores and when sheep, goats or even game
take in the eggs of this tapeworm, a cyst may develop in the brain. Remember to treat sheep dogs
regularly for tapeworms.
Coccidiosis
Numerous reports of infestation with this protozoal parasite were documented. Young animals are
especially affected by coccidiosis. Wet and muddy conditions are an ideal place for young animals to
become infected with this parasite. Discuss preventative measures with your veterinarian.
External parasites
Ticks
![Page 6: Landbou … · 1 | P a g e The following practices and laboratories (109) submitted reports in October 2014: Mpumalanga (14) Balfour – dr. Louis van Jaarsveld Bethal – dr. Hardus](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042918/5f5ce0a2fb9e317d2e7c94da/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
6 | P a g e
There was a huge increase in Blue tick numbers. Make sure that the control measures used are
effective. Blue ticks transmit African and Asiatic red water, anaplasmosis, lumpy skin disease and cause
blood loss.
Reports of the presence of the following tick species were received:
Blue ticks: Mpumalanga, Limpopo, North West, Free State, KwaZulu-Natal, Eastern and Western Cape
Heart water tick: Mpumalanga, Gauteng, Limpopo, North West, KwaZulu-Natal, Eastern and Western
Cape. From Volksrust it was reported that this tick was seen in the area for the first time.
Brown ear-ticks: Limpopo, Free State, KwaZulu-Natal and Eastern Cape
Bont-legged ticks: Mpumalanga, Gauteng, North West, KwaZulu-Natal and Western Cape. The toxin of
this tick causes sweating disease, which was reported.
Red-legged tick: Mpumalanga, Limpopo, North West, Free State, KwaZulu-Natal and Western Cape.
Spring lamb paralysis caused by the red-legged tick was reported from the Free State.
Discuss the life cycles of these ticks and how to control them with your veterinarian, keeping in mind the
selection for tick resistance. Engorged blue ticks can be collected and tested for resistance. Contact your
veterinarian for information regarding the test.
Lice
Lice (sucking and biting) numbers are decreasing after the winter. Farmers with wool sheep should
check their sheep regularly for lice as they cause serious disturbance of the fleece.
Mites
Be on the lookout for disturbances in wool and hair loss. Sheep scab is a State controlled disease and
outbreaks occurred in various provinces. Contact your State Veterinarian to hear whether there are
positive farms in your area. Biosecurity measures to prevent sheep becoming infected should be in place
at all times.
Flies, midges and mosquitoes
Numbers are on the increase after good rains in many parts of the country. Be on the lookout for
diseases carried by these insects.
Tick borne diseases
African and Asiatic red water
The occurrence of these diseases is on the increase as blue tick numbers are on the increase. Reports
were received from Mpumalanga, Gauteng, Free State, KwaZulu-Natal, Eastern Cape and the Western
![Page 7: Landbou … · 1 | P a g e The following practices and laboratories (109) submitted reports in October 2014: Mpumalanga (14) Balfour – dr. Louis van Jaarsveld Bethal – dr. Hardus](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042918/5f5ce0a2fb9e317d2e7c94da/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

Cape. Discuss vaccination programmes with your veterinarian. Asiatic red water is a killer disease and
proper steps should be taken to control this disease!
Anaplasmosis
Numerous reports of outbreaks were received from all provinces except the Northern Cape.. This
disease is spread by blue ticks, biting flies and needles (vaccinations). Conditions causing stress and
diseases interfering with the immune system (eg. BVD) trigger anaplasmosis outbreaks.
Heartwater
Cases (Mpumalanga, Gauteng, Limpopo, North West, KwaZulu-Natal and Eastern Cape) were reported.
The occurrence of this disease is spreading as a result of game transporting the bont tick into non
infected areas.
These diseases can be controlled through vaccination, fly and tick control. Discuss control measures with
your veterinarian to prevent heavy losses.
Corridor disease
As buffalo farming is on the increase cattle farmers should be aware of this disease.
Insect transmitted diseases
Lumpy skin disease
Reports (Mpumalanga, Limpopo, Free State, KwaZulu-Natal and the Eastern and Western Cape) are still
received of numerous cases. This confirms that some species of ticks are also capable of transmitting the
virus causing lumpy skin disease. Most cases occurred in animals that had never been vaccinated. If
there is an outbreak on a farm the virus can also spread via the saliva therefore isolate diseased animals
as soon as possible.
Three day stiff sickness
Only a few cases (Mpumalanga, Limpopo, Eastern and Western Cape) were reported.
Blue tongue
Reports of blue tongue were received from Gauteng, Free State, Eastern, Western and Northern Cape.
It is reported that the occurrence of the disease is earlier than normal. There is a crisis with the
availability of vaccine. Discuss additional control measures with your veterinarian.
Rift Valley Fever and Wesselsbron disease
No reports were received

Venereal diseases
Trichomonosis
This venereal disease is causing havoc in our country. Only one provinces (Gauteng ) did not report on
this disease. It was reported that many farms that were previously free of the disease, are now positive.
Thirty four practices reported this disease. It is of utmost importance that biosecurity measures are in
place. Together with your veterinarian plan how to prevent and control these diseases.
Vibriosis
Regular reports (10 practices) are received. Good vaccines exist to control this disease.
Pizzle disease
A report was received from the Western Cape. Be careful when inspecting rams not to transmit the
disease.
Bacterial diseases
The following bacterial diseases were reported: blackquarter, intra uterine gangrene, pulpy kidney,
lamb dysentery, swelled head, red gut, blood gut, tetanus, botulism, listeriosis, salmonellosis, bovine
brucellosis (23 practices reported) , ovine brucellosis, tuberculosis, Johnes, leptospirosis, enzootic
abortion, colibacillosis, Fusibacterium necrophorum, pasteurellosis and lumpy wool.
Many new brucellosis infections were reported mainly due to positive animals that were bought.
Remember that heifers that have the disease might only start to test positive after they are 5 months
pregnant!
For most of these diseases there are vaccines. Discuss the risk factors for the diseases in your area with
your veterinarian and put together a control program.
Viral diseases
Bovine malignant catarrh (snotsiekte)
Snotsiekte was reported from North West, Free State, KwaZulu-Natal and Eastern Cape. As game
farming with wildebeest, the carriers of the snotsiekte virus, is on the increase, this disease is getting
more and more important. More than 90 calves died of the disease in a feedlot. At present there is no
vaccine available. Discuss preventative measures with your veterinarian. Remember there is also a
sheep associated snotsiekte virus.
Other viral diseases that were reported are: rabies, infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR), bovine viral
diarrhoea (BVD), enzootic bovine leucosis (EBL), orf and warts.

Bovine respiratory disease (BRD) was reported from all over the country with high mortality figures.
Many of the viruses mentioned above are involved. Discuss with your veterinarian how to control this
disease with a vaccination program.
Poisonings
The following toxicities were reported: cardiac glycoside, slangkop, tulip, ink berry (Cestrum),
Cynanchum (klimop), facial eczema, rye grass, dikoor, geeldikkop, gifblaar, gousiekte, Lantana,
krimpsiekte, Senecio, vermeersiekte, ganskweek, Galenia africana (geelbos), prussic acid, diplodiosis,
mycotoxicosis, urea, copper, organophosphate, acidosis and snake bite.
Twenty two lambs died when they were treated with an anthelmintic 10 to 20 times the normal dose.
Draw up a protocol with your veterinarian on how to treat these poisonings should it occur on your
farm.
Nutritional
In October many reports were received of downer animals unable to get up as a result of a lack of
energy and protein. Due to this poor nutritional status in cows they have difficulty in calving, retained
placentas, prolapses and metritis. These animals will also have difficulty in conceiving again.
Multifactorial diseases and other conditions
The following were reported: abscesses, bladder stones, blindness, opthalmia, bloat, blood gut, blue
udder, mastitis, diarrhoea, joint ill, lameness, navel ill, trauma, downer cows and pneumonia.
Reproductive diseases and other conditions
The following were reported: abortions, dystocias, endometritis, metritis, poor conception, retained
afterbirths and prolapses.
Metabolic diseases
The following were reported: acidosis, displaced abomasum, ketosis and milk fever.
Other conditions
Deaths occurred due to trauma, lightning and predators.
Comment: Biosecurity is the key word to always keep in mind when farming with livestock. Know the
disease status of animals bought in before bringing them into the herd!

A farm in the Swellendam area had several mastitis cases. Most of the cases were coliform mastitis. Bacteria isolated
were mostly E. coli, but one sample yielded Citrobacter diversus and another Serratia marescesens. Pseudomonas
aeruginosa was isolated from another sample. Clinically Pseudomonas aeruginosa mastitis can look similar to coliform
mastitis. Mannheimia varigena was also isolated from a sample.

Diarrhoea (3)
Diarrhoea Ost Chick season starting. Large fluctuations in temperatures temperature spikes – eg 42°C next day 26°C and then 14°C. Very cold early morning and afternoon. Temperature settings to high during evenings? Trigger to problems. Water disinfection. Slow response to chicks showing early signs (Poor feed intake. Slight depression) PM: severe diffuse pseudomembranous typhlocolitis. Culture Clostridium and E coli. Large variation to effectiveness of antibiotics. Fisrt line (macrolides and Terramycin) works 70%. 2nd and 3rd lines 50% and below.
Navel ill/ Septicaemia/ toxaemia
Ost Hatcher and chick room hygiene. Dirty airconditioner filters. Egg transmitted? Pseudomonas / E. coli isolated. Very high mortalities first 48 hours.
Flies and migdes Ost/ Bov/ Ovi
An insect explosion. Associated problems notebly eye infections. Water in irrifgation channels stimulate further insect activity notably mosquitoes and midges.
Redgut Ost Very hot weather (spikes). Cause a significant reduction intake. Birds over eat during cooler times which gives the classical red gut syndrome (=pulpy kidney) with over abundance of nutrients.
Ninta Ost Denuded veldt with high geelbos and ninta populations (and other unpalatable spp.) seem to have influenced embryo mortalities (80% sure). It can be that it is just a protein and energy deficiency as farmers believe such veldt contribute to nutritional needs (less than). According to our biodiversity guidelines non virgin veldt may be used for ostrich breeder production. A restriction is placed on carrying capacity as well with current veldt utilizations.

Feedlot report received from dr. Shaun Morris and dr. Eben du Preez ( [email protected])
Sheep feedlots: Dusty conditions were less and with the result that pneumonia cases decreased. Typical cases that are seen at the end of winter and in spring are: Weak lambs due to poor nutrition have problems with adaptation in feed lots, vitamin A deficiency, diarrhoea and increased susceptibility for infections such as pneumonia. Cases of E.coli and salmonellosis occurred and caused mortalities. Transport over long distances on dusty roads and diesel vapour contributed to pneumonia. Wireworm infestation are on the increase. Cattle feedlots: Tick transmitted diseases have already caused losses. Cases of red water, anaplasmosis and heartwater occurred. Pneumonia was the cause of mortalities during dusty and windy conditions before rainfall commenced. Windy conditions also contributed to mortalities due to acidosis, blot and red gut. Some of these animals fattened in the feedlot but at the abattoir their organs were condemned due to pneumonia and peritonitis. Pneumonia cases not only cause expensive treatment costs but decreased weight gains of diseased animals are often a bigger economical loss. Blackquarter was the cause of several mortalities in spite of good vaccination programmes. Some cattle do not immunize well to vaccinations. In calves cases of E. coli and Salmonella infections were diagnosed. Calves on harvested crop fields contracted diplodiosis but only a few died. Cestrum (ink berry) poisoning caused losses in cattle. Cestrum is spreading and more attention should be given as serious losses are taking place. A few cases of tulip poisoning occurred in calves that were back grounded on crop fields. Permanent BVD infected calves were diagnosed and contributed to animal health problems. Poor nutrition was the cause of adaptation problems in feedlots resulting in losses.

Monthly report for October, 2014 from IDEXX laboratories supplied by dr. Marijke Henton
October was also a relatively quiet month. Streptococcus suis was isolated from the vagina of infertile
pigs and also from cattle and sheep pneumonia cases. Streptococcus suis is a sporadic cause of
pneumonia in ruminants, including game. Other causes of pneumonia were Pasteurella mairii in a pig,
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae in a pig, Mannheimia haemolytica in a feedlot sheep and a goat and
Trueperella pyogenes in ovine and porcine pneumonia.
Abortion in cattle was caused by Brucella abortus, Trueperella pyogenes (2 cases) and placentitis due to
Nocardia.
There were also deaths in goats due to anthrax vaccination in the neck area. Not all vaccine
manufacturers recommend that anthrax vaccines administered to goats should be given in the tail fold
or other areas where swelling does not affect respiration. Goats tend to produce large areas of oedema
at the site of anthrax vaccination and if injected in the neck, the oedema may occlude the trachea.
