Purpose: The aim of the study is to examine the impact of climate change on animal health and disease patterns
Methodology: This study adopted a desktop methodology. This study used secondary data from which include review of existing literature from already published studies and reports that was easily accessed through online journals and libraries
Findings: The study revealed that climate change has had a significant impact on animal health and disease patterns, with various negative consequences for biodiversity and ecosystems. Rising temperatures and changing rainfall patterns influence the distribution and abundance of disease vectors, such as mosquitoes and ticks and alter their geographic ranges. This can result in the spread of diseases like malaria, dengue fever, Lyme disease, and West Nile virus to new areas. Additionally, climate change enhance the replication and survival rates of pathogens, potentially leading to more frequent and severe disease outbreaks.
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The study was anchored on One Health theory and Stressor-response theory. The study recommends Incorporation of climate change considerations into wildlife conservation and management strategies. This involves protecting and restoring habitats, creating wildlife corridors to facilitate species movement, and implementing adaptive management practices that consider the potential impacts of climate change on disease dynamics. Conservation efforts should prioritize the preservation of genetic diversity and the enhancement of resilience in animal populations.

Purpose: The aim of the study is to investigate the impact of parasites and parasitic diseases on animal health and productivity.
Methodology: This study adopted a desktop methodology. This study used secondary data from which include review of existing literature from already published studies and reports that was easily accessed through online journals and libraries
Findings: The study found that parasites and parasitic diseases have a significant impact on animal health and productivity across various species. Negative associations between parasitic infections and key indicators of health and productivity, such as weight gain, milk production, reproductive performance, wool quality, and egg quality. Animals with higher parasite burdens tend to experience slower growth rates, reduced fertility, compromised immune function, and increased susceptibility to other diseases. Additionally, parasitic infections can lead to poor feed conversion ratios, higher mortality rates, and decreased overall productivity in livestock and poultry farming operations
Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The study was anchored on Resource Competition Theory which was proposed by Robert M. May in 1974 and Immunopathology Theory which was proposed by Zinkernagel and Doherty in 1974. The study recommends that Governments and regulatory bodies should develop and enforce policies that promote responsible parasite control practices in livestock production.
目的:研究寄生虫和寄生虫病对动物健康和生产力的影响。
研究方法:本研究采用桌面方法。这项研究使用了二手数据,其中包括对已经发表的研究和报告的现有文献的回顾,这些研究和报告很容易通过在线期刊和图书馆获得
研究结果:研究发现,寄生虫和寄生虫病对不同物种的动物健康和生产力有重大影响。寄生虫感染与健康和生产力的关键指标,如体重增加、产奶量、繁殖性能、羊毛质量和鸡蛋质量之间存在负面关联。寄生虫负担较高的动物往往生长速度较慢,生育力下降,免疫功能受损,对其他疾病的易感性增加。此外,寄生虫感染可导致饲料转化率低、死亡率高以及畜禽养殖业整体生产力下降
对理论、实践和政策的独特贡献:本研究以Robert M. May于1974年提出的资源竞争理论和Zinkernagel和Doherty于1974年提出的免疫病理学理论为基础。该研究建议,各国政府和管理机构应制定和执行政策,促进牲畜生产中负责任的寄生虫控制做法。

Purpose: The aim of the study is to investigate effects of environmental contaminants on animal health and reproduction Methodology: This study adopted a desktop methodology. This study used secondary data from which include review of existing literature from already published studies and reports that was easily accessed through online journals and libraries. Findings: The study found that Environmental contaminants can cause a range of health problems in animals. They can disrupt hormonal systems, compromise immune function, damage organs, and lead to various diseases. Environmental contaminants have profound effects on animal reproduction. They can interfere with fertility, reduce reproductive success, and disrupt normal reproductive behaviors. These contaminants can alter hormone levels, impair sperm quality, decrease egg viability, and increase the incidence of reproductive disorders and birth defects.
