A change in health status or eligibility of an animal necessitates the generation of a new CVI.

Questions regarding import requirements should be directed to the Division of Animal Industry at 518-457-3971, or at the division’s import/export homepage: https://agriculture.ny.gov/animals/animal-import-export.

Animal Identification

• ALL MANMADE ID MUST BE RECORDED • Cattle must be identified by an official USDA approved eartag. Radio frequency identification (RFID) eartags, commonly referred to as “840 RFID tags,” are strongly recommended. • Sheep and goats must be identified by official scrapie identification (see sheep and goat sections below). • Swine must be identified by an official USDA approved eartag. Radio frequency identification (RFID) eartags, commonly referred to as “840 RFID tags,” are strongly recommended. Nursing piglets do not have to be individually identified if the sow is correctly identified on the CVI and the number of piglets in the litter is noted on the CVI. • Deer/elk must be identified with an official eartag. • Llamas and alpacas must be identified by official eartag or microchip. • Misc. ruminants must be identified by unique eartag or microchip. • A complete written description is sufficient identification for horses entering New York accompanied by a CVI. The description must match the EIA test record. Horse sketches and descriptions should reference color pattern, hair whorls, chestnuts, scars and other markings as necessary to uniquely identify the horse. Tattoos and microchips if any should be included. “Bay, no markings” is not an acceptable description for a CVI or EIA test record. • NOTE: If you are exhibiting animals identified by microchip, a working reader must be supplied by the exhibitor.

• For questions on animal identification please contact your veterinarian or our office at 518-457-3502. Rabies Vaccination

• Rabies vaccination is required for all species for which there is a USDA licensed vaccine available (cattle, horses, sheep, dog, cat, ferret) and that are 4 months of age or older on the date of admission to the fair. o For most rabies vaccines, the earliest age allowable for primary vaccination is 3 months. Animals that are vaccinated prior to 3 months of age will need to be re-vaccinated according to label before entering the fairgrounds. • Vaccine must have been administered within the past 12 months. The exception is Imrab LA vaccine used in sheep which protects for 3 years after the second annual vaccination (consult your veterinarian). • The rabies vaccination requirement must be met on the day of admission even if the animal was previously admitted to a fair when too young to vaccinate. 16 KD 2/21/20

• NOTE: Individual fairs can require animals for which there is no approved rabies vaccine to be vaccinated for rabies. The requirements outlined above would apply. The fair is responsible for notifying exhibitors. The New York State Fair requires rabies vaccination for all livestock species entering the grounds.

Acceptable Proof of Rabies Vaccination • Acceptable proof of rabies vaccination must include a signed written statement from the veterinarian administering the vaccine or a valid certificate of veterinary inspection that has the vaccination listed and is signed by the Category 2 accredited veterinarian. • Acceptable proof of rabies vaccination must include the name of the product used, the date of administration and the duration of immunity if longer than one year. • If the statement of rabies vaccination is included on an EIA test record, it must be signed separately in addition to the required EIA test record signature. • NOTE: Rabies titers are not acceptable proof of rabies protection and cannot be used to meet entry requirements. • Acceptable proof of vaccination for dogs is a valid vaccination certificate or a copy of the dog license that contains the rabies vaccination information. BVD-PI Testing

• All cattle, llamas and alpacas exhibited at NY county fairs or the State Fair must be negative to an approved test appropriate to detect Bovine Viral Diarrhea persistent infection (BVD-PI). The testing veterinarian is responsible to make sure the proper test is conducted. This is a once in a lifetime test that must be reported on the required certificate of veterinary inspection. The issuing veterinarian is responsible for verifying the validity of the test, the identification of the animal and recording the test date on the CVI. If a previous test is not verifiable the test must be repeated.

Cleaning and Disinfection

• All buildings on the fairgrounds housing animals must be cleaned and disinfected prior to the opening of the fair and between groups of animals when housing is rotated (Section 50.2 of Agriculture and Market regulations). Animal Deaths

• Occasionally animal deaths occur at a fair. If a death occurs it must be reported to the state veterinarian in charge as soon as possible for review. The animal must be promptly removed from the public exhibit area to a secure location and held for the veterinarian prior to disposal. Calving, Kidding, and Lambing

• Any cattle, goats, or sheep that calve, kid, or lamb while at a county fair or the State Fair will be ordered removed from the fairgrounds along with their offspring, unless the animals are part of a birthing demonstration. Commingling of Sheep and Cattle

• Due to the potential spread of malignant catarrhal fever from sheep to cattle, it is strongly recommended that cattle be kept separate from sheep. Commingling of Swine and Poultry

• Due to the potential spread of influenza viruses it is recommended that swine and poultry be housed in separate locations. Isolation on Returning Home

• The owner or custodian shall keep show animals biologically separate from the herd or flock for a period of at least two weeks after returning to the premises of origin. If any illness is noted in the exhibition animals, the owner should contact their veterinarian immediately. 17 KD 2/21/20

EXHIBITOR PREFAIR GUIDELINES

Cattle, Sheep, Goats, Swine, Llamas and Alpacas, Cervids, Misc. Ruminants Review the animal health requirements booklet including information for your species before your veterinarian arrives to inspect your animals. If you have any questions ask.

• Your veterinarian is responsible for inspecting your animals and completing the certificate of veterinary inspection (CVI). Call early to avoid the last minute rush when mistakes are made and there is no time to correct. • Make sure USDA approved official eartags are present on cattle and swine and USDA approved scrapie ID is in place on sheep and goats. • Llamas and alpacas require a microchip or eartag. If a microchip is utilized make sure the veterinarian confirms the microchip ID or places one. If your animal is identified by a microchip, make sure you bring a working reader with you to the fair. • ALL IDENTIFICATION MUST BE RECORDED. Make sure it is. • Review the CVI carefully upon receipt to make sure all the information is correct including any required test or vaccination information. • DO NOT stuff it in an envelope and assume all is well. The time to correct is before pulling them out at the fair. The CVI is your document and you share responsibility if it is incorrect. • If you are importing livestock from out of state make sure the interstate requirements are met and you have a valid interstate certificate of veterinary inspection.

Poultry

• Schedule pullorum flock inspection and testing well ahead of the fair if your flock is participating in the NPIP program. • If you’re having your birds tested within 90 days of the fair you must go to a pullorum clinic. Available clinics are listed on the Dept. website. No individual testing is available if you miss a clinic. 19 KD 2/21/20

• Birds qualified by 90 day test must be identified by official leg band. • Bring documentation with you to the fair in the form of a 1) current NPIP certificate, 2) 90 day test chart or 3) purchase receipt with NPIP certification within 1 year of the date of admission to the fair.

Horses • NY origin horses must be accompanied by a negative EIA test report. The date of sample collection for the qualifying EIA test must have been on or after January 1, 2019. • Imported horses must be accompanied by an interstate certificate of veterinary inspection with a negative EIA test within 12 months. Rabies vaccination information can be incorporated into the CVI. • Drawing or photograph must match the horse. • Rabies vaccination must be within 1 year of arrival at the fair and be documented by a signed rabies certificate or a signed statement on the EIA test chart with the required information (see requirements). MOST IMPORTANT When you are loading your livestock for the trip to the fair take the time to examine them. Make sure they are the same animals that are on the paperwork showing any signs of illness, LEAVE THEM HOME.

INTERSTATE HEALTH REQUIREMENTS FOR FAIR ANIMALS

This document is a supplement to the Animal Health Requirements (AI-202) published for animals exhibited at New York State county fairs and the State Fair. Its purpose is to summarize the import requirements that must be met for livestock entering New York destined for fairs. Please carefully review the Animal Health Requirements. Note that individual county fairs may require rabies vaccination in species not required by the state. Contact the specific fair for their requirements. Fair contact information is available at www.nyfairs.org. Further assistance can be obtained by contacting the Division of Animal Industry (DAI) at 518-457-3502 or your State Veterinarian’s office.
