The present study aimed to determine the macro minerals status ( calcium , phosphorusand magnesium ) in the local buffaloes breed that suffering from uterine prolapse comparedwith other buffaloes withoututerine prolapse. The study started from August 2015 toMay 2016 , and conducted on 100 local buffalo breed, 3-14 years old, reared in Basraprovince (Basra – Iraq ). Animals were divided into two groups, first group included (40 ) diseased animals with uterine prolapse and the second group included ( 60 ) animalswithout uterine prolapse served as control. Diseased buffaloes were diagnosed on thebases of clinical manifestation, since uterine prolapse were evaluated after 6-72 hourspost calving.The results showed that there wasa drastic decrease in serum macro mineralslevels in prolapsed animals, and calcium serum level was (6.31 ± 0.71mg/dl), phosphorus(3.69 ± 0.45mg/dl) and magnesium (2.85 ± 0.18mg/dl) compared with levels of controlanimals that showed (10.02 ± 1.52, 4.97 ± 0.39 , 5.17 ± 0.97) mg/dl of the calcium,phosphorus and magnesium successively. It was concluded that deficiency of calcium,phosphorus and magnesium serum level in the last period of pregnancy and at parturitionmight be possible causes of post calving uterine prolapse in these buffaloes
