ABSTRACT

A goat pox outbreak occurred in black bengal breed of goats at Jharkhand, was studied. The
morbidity and mortality rate was recorded as 100% and 81.25% respectively. No age and sex
specificity was observed. The course of the disease was found to be more severe in kids than adults. On conducting countercurrent immunoelectrophoresis (CCIE) test the disease Will confirmed as goat pox. Total protein (7.34 ± 0.287 gm%) and globulin levels (5.3 ± 0.27 gm%) increased however, albumin (2.04 ± 0.14 gm%) and A:G ratio (0.39 ± 0.03) decreased in affected goats as comparison to their physiological values The disease probably precipitated due to transportation stress as the animals were purchased from endemic area
