Goats are generally resistant to many diseases. However when we rear more number of animals in one place and insufficiency of pasture facilities, intensive system of rearing leads to spread of many diseases. The present study was conducted in a 1.5 year old buck with the history of diarrhea on Instructional Goat farm, COVSc and AH, Rewa. The animal showed high rise in temperature, signs of severe diarrhea which was profuse watery to pasty feces, usually pale yellow to greenish in color and occasionally streaked with blood and foul smelling. The parasitological examination involving qualitative and quantitative estimation of parasitic load revealed presence of the eggs of Haemonchus species, M. expansa species, stongyle and strongyloides. There was reduction in Hb, total erythrocyte count and PCV values which were haemolglobin (Hb) 4 g/dl, TEC 6.17X103 and PCV(%) 18.; whereas there was an increase in total eosinophil count and total leukocyte count as TLC 18X103 and DLC (neutrophils 32%, lymphocytes 51%, monocytes 3% and eosinophils 14%). The animal was treated with antiparasitic drug Fentas plus and other supportive treatment was given which lead to quick recovery in animal. Hence identification of diseases in goat and its prevention is most important.
