Cattle and Buffalo distribution (Africa)

The Cattle and Buffalo distribution dataset shows cattle and buffalo distribution for sub-Saharan, East and Central Africa. It is part of the East Coast Fever (ECF) dataset. The ECF study determined both areas at risk and potential migration of the disease by cattle and a potential pool of infection for transmitting the disease to domestic cattle by Buffalo. Buffalo is the main wildlife host of the ECF. The study was carried out in Nairobi in collaboration with United Nations Environment Program, Global Resource Information Database (UNEP/GRID) and the International Laboratory for Research on Animal Diseases (ILRAD), now called International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI).
