Abstract

The goat industry has been developing for many years in Korea to meet demands for food and medicine. However, many complicated patterns of disease have arisen in goat farms as this industry has developed. In this study, disease occurrence patterns in Korean black goats were surveyed in six professional farming households in Imsil and Soonchang in the Jeonbuk province and in Hamyang and Sachon in the Gyeongnam province to understand and extend the goat disease database. We observed morbidity rates between 2.0% and 9.8% for adult goats and between 2.9% and 68.3% for kids. Kids showed a markedly higher incidence of disease when compared to adults. The rate of disease occurrence was 40.0% for floppy kid syndrome (FKS), 37.7% for diarrhea, 16.0% for respiratory disease, and 1.9% for skin disease. The observed mortality rates were 0.7% ~ 10.0%, and 2.2% ~ 24.9% for adult goats and kids, respectively. In addition, FKS, diarrhea, and respiratory disease were observed in 38.3%, 28.9%, and 10.0%, respectively, of dead goats. In conclusion, the majority of diseases in goats occur during the neonatal period, and FKS is the highest single cause of mortality in Korean black goats. Thus careful attention must be paid to kids to reduce the goat mortality rate.

우리나라에서 흑염소는 오랫동안 육용 및 약용으로 널리 사육되어 오고 있다. 흑염소 산업이 발달함에 따라 사육농가에서 복잡 다양한 질병이 발생되고 있는 형편이다. 본 연구에서는 전북 임실, 순창과 경남 함양, 사천에 소재한 6개 흑염소 전업농가를 대상으로 흑염소에서의 질병 발생 양상을 분석하고, 우리나라에서 흔들이병의 발생현황을 확인하였다. 질병의 발병율은 성축에서 2.0% ~ 9.8%를 나타낸 반면, 자축에서는 2.9% ~ 68.3%를 나타내어 어린 가축에서 높은 발병율을 나타내었다. 발생된 질병중 신생축의 대사성 산증에 의해 유발되는 흔들이병이 전체 발생질병중 40.0%로 가장 높은 비율을 차지하였고, 다음으로 설사병 37.7%, 호흡기질환 16.0%, 피부질환 1.9%의 비율을 나타내었다. 질병에 의한 폐사율은 성축에서 0.7% ~ 10.0%를 나타낸 반면, 자축에서 2.2% ~ 24.9%로 성축에 비해 높은 폐 사율을 나타내었으며, 질병별 폐사비율로는 흔들이병이 38.3%로 가장 높았으며, 이외 설사병 28.9%, 호흡기질환 10.0%를 나타내었다. 결론적으로, 우리나라에서 사육하는 흑염소에서 가장 많이 발생하고, 폐사되는 질병으로 신생자축의 흔들이병으로 조사되었는데, 이를 기반으로 흔들이병을 포함한 흑염소에서 발생되는 질병의 정확한 발생기전과 치료 및 예방대책에 대한 연구가 지속적으로 수행되어야 될 것으로 사료된다.
