Remember: Educate, Report and Submit

    • Visit the Scrapie Disease Information Page
  • Report. Contact your State Veterinarian or the USDA Veterinary Services Office for your state if your sheep or goat, older than 12 months, exhibits clinical signs of scrapie. Testing clinical suspects is the most cost effective way to find scrapie infected animals.
    • For more information contact the Designated Scrapie Epidemiologist (DSEs) and Contact for your State.
  • Submit samples or whole heads from sheep and goats over 18 months of age that die or are euthanized on your premises. Additional information is available on how you or your veterinarian can submit samples or whole heads for scrapie testing.
