at the risk of being accused of oversimplification compared to European breeds ALL indigenous north African goat breeds are, to various fluctuating degrees (related to a disease endemic condition, the goat nutritional status and productivity), resistant=with mild clinical symptoms to common African pathologies: trypanosomosis, CCPP, PPR, FMD, tick-borne diseases, endoparasites etc
