Primefact Number: 667 Edition: First edition Released/reviewed: 01 May 2008
OJD is a wasting disease that can cause significant mortalities in sheep.
It transmits very easily between neighbouring flocks and over long distances by the movement of infected animals.
Sheep become infected by eating pasture or drinking water that is contaminated with the bacterium that causes OJD.
The following information can help you to protect your property and stock from OJD, and to minimise the impact of the disease on both you and your neighbours if your sheep are already infected.
