Abstract

“Vaccination does not treat sick animals. It helps to prevent the disease from spreading to healthy animals. You must treat all the sick animals, first…” The book tells the story of villagers’ fearful responses when some of their livestock start to get sick. The illustrations provide excellent support for a simple, yet far-reaching story. The theme is raising awareness of animal diseases and their treatment, with outcomes of increased security in terms of animal health and household income. Community animal health workers (CAWH) provide nodes of reliable information and training so that disease prevention can gain a foothold among women and men farmers.
