dc.description.abstract	The important viral, protozoal and bacterial diseases of wild African ruminants are reviewed. Special attention is paid to the epidemiological factors that determine the role played by these animals in the transmission of diseases to domestic stock. Examples of the converse situation where livestock serve as a source of infection for wild ruminants are also given.	en
