Ethiopia is resource full country endowed with larges
population of livestock in Africa. The total cattle populations of the country
is estimated to be about 57.83 million, whereas the number of small ruminantsare estimated to exceed 58 million. However, development this sector is
hampered by different constraints and has not been fully exploited the benefit
of indigenous livestock compared to its tremendous potential.
Significant losses result each year from the death of
animals as a result of lack of appropriate veterinary services, lack of
attention from government, wide spread endemic disease and recurrent drought.
Ingestible foreign body predisposed by environmental pollution is currently
becoming a global health problem of ruminants and have been implicated as among
common causes of sudden death.
