Online directory of animal disease launched

A government website has been launched that lists all animal diseases in Britain.

The veterinary surveillance website includes an A-Z of diseases affecting animals in the UK and abroad. The site contains lots of facts, statistics and maps about farmed, domestic animals and wildlife.

The website is part of a 10-year veterinary surveillance strategy.
