Match the method of disease transmission with the correct example:

Direct contact = Saliva Indirect contact = Contaminated feed Vector = Tick carrying Lymes disease bacteria Foodborne = Drinking unpasteurised milk

Match the bio-security measure with its description:

Herd Tests = Regular health checks for livestock Animal Health Plan = Structured plan for animal well-being Stock proof farm boundaries = Preventing contact with neighboring stock Wash hands regularly = Personal hygiene practice

Match the disease with the correct animal association:

Brucellosis = Cattle, sheep, and goats Cryptosporidiosis = Cattle and sheep Leptospirosis = Rats or cattle urine Salmonellosis = Farm animals, especially poultry

Match the disease with its characteristic symptom:

Ringworm = Rings of patches on animals Cryptosporidiosis = Young animals scouring Toxoplasmosis = Infection in pregnant women Salmonellosis = Causing sickness from uncooked meat Signup and view all the answers
