Terinary Epidemiology and Disease Control Role

Wu David

Animals, both domesticated and non-domesticated, provide considerable financial and non-financial benefits to humans. Livestock provides food, fibre, hides, manure for fuel and fertiliser, and draught power to communities and families, as well as having cultural significance and playing a part in the status of individuals in certain societies. Non-domesticated animals provide a range of benefits to humans, including economic, health, recreational, scientific, and ecological values. Pet animals, particularly dogs and cats, are important companions in many households and contribute to the physical, social, and emotional development of children and the well-being of their owners, whereas non-domesticated animals provide a range of benefits to humans, including economic, health, recreational, scientific, and ecological values. Disease, on the other hand, can have a substantial impact on livestock output and product quality, as well as the lifetime and quality of the animals.
