Scrapie
listed in
2 states
WASHINGTON, D.C.
Two cases of sheep
scrapie were confirmed
during August - one in
Indiana and one in
Wisconsin.
Jack R. Pitcher, staff
veterinarian with
USDA’s Animal and
Plant Health Inspection
Service, said earlier this
month samples were
taken from a 3-year old
Suffolk ram in Hun
tingdon, Ind., and from
a female in Green Lake,
Wis., and sent to the Na
tional Veterinary Ser
vices Laboratories in
Ames, lowa, for testing.
In both instances,
scrapie was confirmed
- on Aug. 14 for the Hun
tingdon sample and
Aug. 20 for the sample
from Green Lake.
Pitcher said those
animals, along with any
closely related animals
will be destroyed and
disposed of. He said the
owners will be paid two
thirds the appraised
value of the animals up
to $3OO.
“The 22 cases
reported in this fiscal
year beginning Oct. 1,
1983, through Aug. 20,
1984, have reached an
all time high,” Pitcher
said. “We have not had
as many reported cases
since 1956 - and the year
is not over yet.”
Scrapie is a disease of
sheep and goats that at
tacks the central ner
vous system. It has an
extremely long incuba
tion period, requiring 18
to 42 months or longer
before clinical signs ap
pear. It is nearly always
fatal. Symplons include
poor condition,
unsteady gait and rubb
ing or scratching -to
relieve intense itching.
