Animal health can be an important factor in human health due to it's relationship to human food supplies. A recent survey among individuals in the goat industry asked about the top disease priorities. As of 2017, internal parasites, followed by caseous lymphadenitis, were the top disease priorities. Priorities were ranked based on a weighted points system according to participant responses.
