Ante-mortem inspection was carried out on arrival in the lairage; temporal identification numbers were given for individual animals were recorded. Then after, post-mortem examination was performed in each organ and carcass of individual animals along their identification number to detect gross abnormalities and aesthetic reasons that rendered each organ to be rejected from local market. During the study, a total of 384 sheep were randomly sampled and examined postmortem after slaughter for presence of C. tenuicollis in the visceral organs of the animals using standard meat inspection procedures and laboratory result. The collected data and stored into Microsoft excel was analyzed using SPSS.ver.20 (USA) statistical software. Out of the 384 sheep inspected for visceral organs, C. tenuicollis was found in of 89(23.2%) sheep. Adult sheep 87(24.6%) were more infested than young 2(6.5%) with statistically significant difference (p=0.021). Sheep with poor body condition 21(34.4%) were found most infected compared to medium 47(24.5%) and good 21(16%) body condition with statistically significant difference (p=0.016). More infected sheep were found in kersa50 (41%), Aweday 25(20%) and haramaya 14(10.2%). This study also shows that C. tenuicollisis more frequently detected in the liver 40(10.4%) of sheep than any other visceral organs and the peritoneum was the least 9(2.3%). The liver lesions are unsightly and affect the texture of the tissue, making it unsuitable for human consumption and as a result extensive financial loss associated with condemnation of liver occurred. The annual loss due to the rejection of liver from the sheep slaughtered in the Haramaya municipal abattoir was estimated approximately 77,220.8 ETB. So as to reduce these losses, further comprehensive studies that include all the representative export and local slaughter houses should be done as to introduce appropriate preventive and control strategies that avoid the unnecessary financial losses.

This study included 384 cattle that were chosen at random. Prior to postmortem examination, an ante mortem examination was used to characterize a specific animal. A total of 154 (40.1%) of the 384 cattle evaluated were found to have indigestible foreign materials in their rumen and reticulum. Female cattle (54.4 percent) had a substantially greater prevalence of foreign bodies (2 = 25.817, p 0.05) than male cattle (29.0 percent). In terms of breed, the prevalence of foreign bodies was higher in cross breed (56.2 percent) animals than in local breed animals (38.6 percent). Poor (71.2 percent) had substantially more foreign bodies collected (2 = 69.138, p 0.05) than medium (52.9) and good (52.9). Score for bodily condition (18). The results showed that age has a significant connection (2 = 40.626, p 0.05) among different age groups of animals for foreign bodies (21.4 percent in young, 40.8 percent in adults, and 70.3 percent in old). The rumen was shown to have a higher percentage of foreign bodies (78.0%) than the reticulum (10.1%), with the remaining percent present in both the rumen and the reticulum. Plastic (53.4%) was the most commonly found foreign material in the rumen, while metallic material (35.3%) was found in the reticulum. The findings of this study revealed that improper solid waste garbage disposal in habitats poses a considerable danger of animal and environmental damage. As a result, the responsible government and community should focus their efforts on preventing the problem from worsening.

Economically significant infectious camel illness called camel mange affects the health and production of these animals. In order to ascertain the prevalence of camel mange mites and related risk factors in Kumbi woreda in Eastern Hararghe, Ethiopia, a cross-sectional study was carried out between May and November 2019. A total of 384 animals were randomly chosen for this investigation, and 96 camels tested positive for mange mite infestation. Skin scrapings were used to recover mange from suspicious lesions, which were then inspected under a microscope. As a result, 25% of camels were discovered to have mange mites. In every skin scraping sample taken from the suspected mange mite lesions, only Sarcoptes scabiei var. cameli mite species was found. PA, sex, age, physical condition status, and herd size were thought to be risk factors. Only the herd size and body condition shows a statistically significant difference in the prevalence of mange mites (P 0.05), whereas the PA, sex, and age did not exhibit any significant differences in mange infestation. According to this study, mange mites are present in camel papulations in the Kumbi woreda, which may negatively impact the health and productivity of the camels. To lessen the impact of mange mite infestation on camel husbandry, more emphasis should be placed on improving the management system, along with additional research and control measures.

Listeriosis is a serious illness caused by eating food contaminated with the bacterium Listeria, which is a Gram-positive psychotropic, facultatively anaerobic, none sporulating, motile, small rod. It displays characteristic tumbling motility that is facilitated by the presence of peritrichous fl agella. Motility is temperature-dependent, showing high motility at 20-30°C when the fl agellar expression is maximum. L. monocytogenes is ubiquitous in the environment and can be found in soil, water, feces, silage, effl uent foods, and sewage. It has the ability to form biofi lms which can contribute to its ability to colonize food processing facilities. The primary mode of transmission for Listeria is through soil contamination and ingestion of contaminated feed. Calves that develop the septicemic disease may acquire infection from contamination of the cow teat from the ingestion of milk containing the organism or from a cow with subclinical bacteremia, through the navel from the environment and also as congenital infection. Infection with Listeria. monocytogenes usually follow ingestion of contaminated feed and may result in septicemia, encephalitis, and abortion. There are few clinical features that are unique to listeriosis. Therefore, clinicians must consider a variety of potential causes of infection, including viral infections (infl uenza) and other bacterial infections that may cause sepsis or meningitis. Cook thoroughly raw food from animal sources, such as beef, pork, or poultry. Wash raw vegetables thoroughly before eating. Keep uncooked meats separate from vegetables and from cooked foods and ready-to-eat foods. Avoid raw (unpasteurized) milk or foods made from raw milk. Wash hands, knives, and cutting board and can contact with before and after handling cooked foods.

The disease is caused by various serotypes of Salmonella which are aerobic and facultative anaerobic, gram-negative rods and motile with the exception of S.pullorum and S.Gallinarum. Salmonella, like most Enterobacteriaceae, are motile, no spore forming, reduce nitrates to nitrites, ferment glucose, and are oxidase negative. The genus of Salmonella consists of only two species, Salmonella bongori and Salmonella enterica, with the latter being divided into six subspecies; S. entericasub spp. enterica, S. entericasubsp. salamae, S. enteric subsp. arizonae, S. entericasubsp. Diarizonae, S. entericasubsp. Houtenae, and S. entericasubsp. Indicia. It constitutes a major public health burden and represents a significant cost in many countries. The presence of any serotype of Salmonella in food renders that food unfit for human consumption. Salmonella are known for its wide range host. It can because variety of diseases in some hosts while in others, can be asymptomatic. Poultry and eggs are considered as major sources for these pathogenic microorganisms. The disease is transmitted from animal to animal, animal to human and human to human direct or indirect pathway. Among Salmonella spp. Salmonella Entericais one of the Salmonella serotypes responsible for causing enteric disease in humans.

Results Twenty-one (21) of the 384 cattle examined utilizing the post-mortem examinations meat inspection methodology were positive for C. bovis, resulting in a prevalence of 5.5 %. The masseter muscle (11.5 %) had the highest prevalence of cysts, followed by the triceps (8.3%), heart (5.8%), liver (4.8 %), and tongue (2.9 %). The sex-based prevalence rates were 10 (3.4%) and 11 (12.1%), respectively. The predominance of bodily condition was found to be good (1.3%), medium (11.1%), and bad (50 %). The prevalence male and female e differed substantially by organ, sex, and bodily condition (p>0.05), but not statistically significant by age of the animals (young 2.8% vs. adult 6.1%) (p>0.05). Eight (20%) of the total 40 interviewees had contracted Taenia saginata infection at least once in their lives. Religion showed a significant difference (p>0.05) (Christian 66.7% and Muslim 6.5%). However, there was no statistically significant difference in meat consumption habits (raw 31.6% vs. cooked 9.5%), sex (male 26.5% vs. female 11.8%), age (young 33.3% vs. adult 17.7%), educational status (illiterate 22.2% vs. elementary 14.3% vs. high school 27.3% vs. college 16.7%) or latrine use (proper users 19.4% and non-proper users 25%). Conclusion This study to increasing public awareness of the disease, as well as strict routine meat inspections, should be prioritized in order to decrease the parasite's impact.

Economically significant infectious camel illness called camel mange affects the health and production of these animals. In order to ascertain the prevalence of camel mange mites and related risk factors in Kumbi woreda in Eastern Hararghe, Ethiopia, a cross-sectional study was carried out between May and November 2019. A total of 384 animals were randomly chosen for this investigation, and 96 camels tested positive for mange mite infestation. Skin scrapings were used to recover mange from suspicious lesions, which were then inspected under a microscope. As a result, 25% of camels were discovered to have mange mites. In every skin scraping sample taken from the suspected mange mite lesions, only Sarcoptes scabiei var. cameli mite species was found. PA, sex, age, physical condition status, and herd size were thought to be risk factors. Only the herd size and body condition shows a statistically significant difference in the prevalence of mange mites (P 0.05), whereas the PA, sex, and age did not exhibit any significant differences in mange infestation. According to this study, mange mites are present in camel papulations in the Kumbi woreda, which may negatively impact the health and productivity of the camels. To lessen the impact of mange mite infestation on camel husbandry, more emphasis should be placed on improving the management system, along with additional research and control measures.

Animal immaturity is one of these reasons. This communication was written with the goal of documenting surgical management of dystocia and its impact on a two-year-old heifer who was with a full-term pregnancy. A vaginal delivery was tried but failed due to the narrow maternal pelvis. To avoid any post-operative problems, the surgical management was carried out under strict aseptically. A volume of 30 ml 2% Lidocaine Hydrochloride was infiltrated on left flank with inverted L-block techniques. While the cow was on her right lateral recumbency. The uterus was emptied of a deceased fetus but fetal membrane with the intact umbilical cord was returned back to the womb. Suturing was done using standard surgical procedures, and post-surgical care was followed-up for ten-days. The heifer was successfully rehabilitated.

Listeriosis is a serious illness caused by eating food contaminated with the bacterium Listeria, which is a Gram-positive psychotropic, facultatively anaerobic, none sporulating, motile, small rod. It displays characteristic tumbling motility that is facilitated by the presence of peritrichous fl agella. Motility is temperature-dependent, showing high motility at 20-30°C when the fl agellar expression is maximum. L. monocytogenes is ubiquitous in the environment and can be found in soil, water, feces, silage, effl uent foods, and sewage. It has the ability to form biofi lms which can contribute to its ability to colonize food processing facilities. The primary mode of transmission for Listeria is through soil contamination and ingestion of contaminated feed. Calves that develop the septicemic disease may acquire infection from contamination of the cow teat from the ingestion of milk containing the organism or from a cow with subclinical bacteremia, through the navel from the environment and also as congenital infection. Infection with Listeria. monocytogenes usually follow ingestion of contaminated feed and may result in septicemia, encephalitis, and abortion. There are few clinical features that are unique to listeriosis. Therefore, clinicians must consider a variety of potential causes of infection, including viral infections (infl uenza) and other bacterial infections that may cause sepsis or meningitis. Cook thoroughly raw food from animal sources, such as beef, pork, or poultry. Wash raw vegetables thoroughly before eating. Keep uncooked meats separate from vegetables and from cooked foods and ready-to-eat foods. Avoid raw (unpasteurized) milk or foods made from raw milk. Wash hands, knives, and cutting board and can contact with before and after handling cooked foods.

The disease is caused by various serotypes of Salmonella which are aerobic and facultative anaerobic, gram-negative rods and motile with the exception of S.pullorum and S.Gallinarum. Salmonella, like most Enterobacteriaceae, are motile, no spore forming, reduce nitrates to nitrites, ferment glucose, and are oxidase negative. The genus of Salmonella consists of only two species, Salmonella bongori and Salmonella enterica, with the latter being divided into six subspecies; S. entericasub spp. enterica, S. entericasubsp. salamae, S. enteric subsp. arizonae, S. entericasubsp. Diarizonae, S. entericasubsp. Houtenae, and S. entericasubsp. Indicia. It constitutes a major public health burden and represents a significant cost in many countries. The presence of any serotype of Salmonella in food renders that food unfit for human consumption. Salmonella are known for its wide range host. It can because variety of diseases in some hosts while in others, can be asymptomatic. Poultry and eggs are considered as major sources for these pathogenic microorganisms. The disease is transmitted from animal to animal, animal to human and human to human direct or indirect pathway. Among Salmonella spp. Salmonella Entericais one of the Salmonella serotypes responsible for causing enteric disease in humans.

Method A cross-section study design was conducted from November 2020 to March 2021, based on routine meat inspection on simple randomly selected cattle slaughtered at the abattoir. Visual inspection of all exposed surface was made in all active organs. They are shoulder muscles, hearts, masseters (cheek muscle), diaphragms, tongues and livers. This is followed by incision of all those organs to be examined for Cysticercus bovis cysts. Results Twenty-one (21) of the 384 cattle examined utilizing the post-mortem examinations meat inspection methodology were positive for C. bovis, resulting in a prevalence of 5.5 %. The masseter muscle (11.5 %) had the highest prevalence of cysts, followed by the triceps (8.3%), heart (5.8%), liver (4.8 %), and tongue (2.9 %). The sex-based prevalence rates were 10 (3.4%) and 11 (12.1%), respectively. The predominance of bodily condition was found to be good (1.3%), medium (11.1%), and bad (50 %). The prevalence male and female e differed substantially by organ, sex, and bodily condition (p>0.05), but not statistically significant by age of the animals (young 2.8% vs. adult 6.1%) (p>0.05). Eight (20%) of the total 40 interviewees had contracted Taenia saginata infection at least once in their lives. Religion showed a significant difference (p>0.05) (Christian 66.7% and Muslim 6.5%). However, there was no statistically significant difference in meat consumption habits (raw 31.6% vs. cooked 9.5%), sex (male 26.5% vs. female 11.8%), age (young 33.3% vs. adult 17.7%), educational status (illiterate 22.2% vs. elementary 14.3% vs. high school 27.3% vs. college 16.7%) or latrine use (proper users 19.4% and non-proper users 25%). Conclusion This study to increasing public awareness of the disease, as well as strict routine meat inspections, should be prioritized in order to decrease the parasite's impact.

This study was conducted by using the protocols of standard meat inspection (visual, palpation and incision) to assess the prevalence and associated risk factors and to estimate the economic loss in cattle slaughtered at Bedeno Municipal Abattoir, Eastern Hararghe, Ethiopia.
Method
A cross-section study design was conducted from February 2020 to November 2020, to determine the prevalence and its associated risk factors of bovine hydatidosis is taking animal origin, sex and age and body condition as risk factors.
Results
From A total of 355 cattle examined using the protocol of standard meat inspection, 99(27.8%) of them are found positive to hydatid cysts. The prevalence of cattle hydatidosis based on animal origin was highest in older cattle 89(29.47%) than young 10(18.89%). Regarding body condition, score to significance variation was observed, as the prevalence was 41.89% for poor cattle followed by medium 24.07% and good 24.37%. Of the total 99 infected, 41(11.55%) of animals were infected in their lungs with only hydatid cysts and 24(6.76%) were infected in their liver, but the rest animals had multiple organ infections, 34(9.58%). Considering the current result, the total annual economic loss from organ condemnation and carcass weight loss due to bovine hydatidosis at Bedeno Municipal Abattoir was estimated at 6,671,803.8 Ethiopian birr (ETB).
Conclusion
This study reveals that cattle hydatidosis was a high prevalence diseases in the study area and needs paucity of information on control and prevention. The cattle owners to be educated and awareness programmes to be conducted about the diseases.
