In Himachal Pradesh, majority of the farmers are small land holdings farmers and animal husbandry especially rearing of sheep and goats is their main supplementary occupation particularly in tribal areas. Occasional outbreaks of various infectious diseases continue to impede development of sheep and goats husbandry and farmers have to bear heavy economical losses. Chlamydiosis, which is caused by chlamydia psittaci, is one of such diseases. It causes different disease syndromes viz. abortion, pneumonitis, enteritis, keratoconjunctivitis, mastitis, arthritis etc. In this region enzootic abortions; pneumonia and endometritis have been reported earlier based on isolation studies and its seroprevalence has also been recorded. The present study was planned to ascertain the overall seroprevalence of chlamydiosis among Gaddi sheep and goats, reared under different system viz. organised farms, migratory flocks and animals which are usually brought for slaughter.
