  • Farm Animals and Farming: Part 1
    A GUIDE TO THE COUNTRYSIDE: FARM ANIMALS & FARMING by Hunter Adair Farm animals and farming: Part 1 When you are out in the countryside in the summer, you will see a great variety of animals running about in the fields, and if you happen to be travelling in the Dales, or in the hills you will mostly find sheep and probably suckler cattle, which are cows with their calves running with them. Some sheep are bred for the high hills and areas where the land is much less fertile than on the lowland farms. The hill bred sheep are hardy and can stand a great deal of rough weather. In the winter when a blizzard or snow storm is forecast the sheep will come down Judging Blue Face Leicester from the hill tops on their own to lower ground and shelter, they seem to know when a storm sheep at The Royal Highland is coming. Show In Edinburgh There are over 50 breeds of sheep in this country and many people from the towns and cities think one sheep is just like another. All the different breeds of sheep have their own characteristics and peculiarities. Some sheep are pure bred and some sheep are cross bred to get a particular lamb, which a farmer may prefer, and which may suit his farm. Some breeds of sheep have been developed in certain parts of the country and in certain areas, and the name of the sheep is taken from the district where they were born and bred. In Scotland for instance they have numerous breeds of sheep which are all different.

  • Prion Agent Diversity and Species Barrier
    Vet. Res.

The most widely accepted view to date is that these agents lack a nucleic acid genome and con- sist primarily of PrPSc, a misfolded, aggregated form of the host-encoded cellular prion protein (PrPC)that propagates by autocatalytic conversion and accumulates mainly in the brain. The BSE epizooty, allied with the emergence of its human counterpart, variant CJD, has focused much attention on two characteristics that prions share with conventional infectious agents. First, the existence of multiple prion strains that impose, after inoculation in the same host, specific and stable phenotypic traits such as incubation period, molec- ular pattern of PrPSc and neuropathology. Prion strains are thought to be enciphered within distinct PrPSc conformers. Second, a transmission barrier exists that restricts the propagation of prions between different species. Here we discuss the possible situations resulting from the confrontation between species barrier and prion strain diversity, the molecular mechanisms involved and the potential of interspecies transmission of animal prions, including recently discovered forms of TSE in ruminants.

Cattle, goats, sheep, pigs, poultry and other livestock have been an essential part of agriculture and our history as a nation. With the change of agriculture from a way of life to a successful industry, we are losing our agricultural roots. Although we descend from a nation of farmers, few of us can name more than a handful of livestock breeds that are important to our production of food and fiber.

TSE transmission via blood transfusion has been demonstrated experimentally in rodent, primate and sheep models. Additionally, in humans, four variant Creutzfeld-Jakob disease (vCJD) cases have been reported which probably resulted from infected blood transfusions. Although TSEs can be transmitted via blood transfusion, little is known about which blood cells are involved in the replication of the TSE agent and how infectivity is spread throughout the body prior to neuroinvasion.
