This review is aimed at providing information on current status of oestrus synchronization as a management tool in goats Nigeria. Oestrus synchronisation reproductive that enables goat farmers breed their animals within short pre-determined period. The principle chiefly the control luteal phase oestrous cycle and two basic mechanisms are employed. These include use prostaglandins or its analogues to shorten life/induce premature luteolysis exogenous progesterone prolong life, thereby...
The study aimed at providing information in estimating the age of camel using rostral dentition through phenomenon teeth eruption and wearing, thought, only way to an animal accurately is know date birth but where these records are not available various anatomical features used estimate age. A total 1100 camels both sex were for purpose study. Records obtained between April July 2010 on daily visit Sokoto metropolitan abattoir. Investigation showed that birth, there no teeth, 9 month, all...
A Histomorphological study was conducted on the oesophagus of 35 foetuses one-humped camel collected from Sokoto metropolitan abattoir, over a period five months at different gestational ages. The approximate age estimated crown vertebral rump length (CVRL) and samples were categorised into first, second third trimester. At first trimester, only three layers identified, ie; Tunica mucosa, muscularis adventitia. orientation fibres changed, resembling that adult with all four prominent i.e....
A Biometrical study was conducted on the digestive tract of 35 foetuses one-humped camel collected from Sokoto metropolitan abattoir, over a period five months at different gestational ages. The approximate age estimated crown vertebral rump length (CVRL) and samples were categorised into first, second third trimester. mean body weight foetus trimester ranged 1.40 ± 0.06 kg, 6.10 0.05 kg 17.87 0.6 respectively. weights entire system 0.80 0.07 2.13 0.04 4.86 0.08 0.53 1.03 2.43 T he small...
A study was carried out on the morphometry of reproductive genitalia 45 African Zebu cattle (AZC) using standard laboratory procedure, with special reference to heifers and cows. The overall mean weight cows were 0.43 + 0.03 kg 0.79 0.02 respectively. ovarian weights heifer from left right 3.80 0.12g 4.88 0.04g; that 3.53 0.10g 5.48 0.04g respectively. length cow oviduct 30.04 0.08 cm 30.21 0.07 cm; 21.68 0.18 22.14 0.16 There no significant difference in diameter between (P > 0.05). ...
This review examines the one humped camel (Camelus dromedarius) a considerable number of dromedary about 50,000 is found in semi-arid part Northern Nigeria. Apart from wide use as draught animal now serve source milk, meat and hide this region, these notes anatomical basis reproduction, pregnancy, its diagnosis, fertility, application modern techniques reproduction. Different equipments are being employed for explicit study reproductive processes camel. Transrectal ultrasaonographic...
A Histomorphometric study was conducted on the kidney of seventeen (17) fetuses Yankasa sheep (Ovis aries) collected from Sokoto metropolitan abattoir, over a period one month at different gestational ages.The approximate age estimated crown vertebral rump length (CVRL) and samples were categorised into first, second third trimester.Out used for study, 7 (48%) females while 10 (52%) males.6(35%) belong to first trimester, 5(30%) trimester 6(35%) trimesters pregnancy respectively.The mean...
Cephalometry deals with measurement of body parts or radiological specimen. Sella turcica is an important anatomical structure located in the middle cranial fossa, housing pituitary gland. Various shapes and sizes sellae were reported. In this study, using computerized tomographic (CT) scans from a tertiary hospital, one hundred seventy five (175) analyzed Radiant version 4.2 (Medixant 2017) for determination sella. Average dimensions study include: Length (12.4 mm), A-P diameter (14.1 depth...

Abstract Crossbreeding of desert goat does with the temperate Saanen x Toggenburg buck was found to result in a significant increase daily live-weight gain and empty body weight their progeny slaughtered at about 30 kg live when compared purebred kids (P < 0·001). Food intake did not differ between two types kids, but food conversion efficiency significantly superior crossbred 0·05). Carcass killing-out proportion tended be greater reflecting lower weights head, skin, internal organs gut...
This study aimed at investigating the prenatal development of camel circumvallate papillae using standard histomorphometric methods. In experiment, fifteen Camelus dromedarius foetuses obtained from Sokoto metropolitan abattoir different gestational ages were used for study. The fetuses weighed and grouped according to their which estimated crown-vertebral-rump length. From tongues study, five belonged being in first trimester development, came second next third trimester. A total ten males...
A histomorphological study of the thyroid glands 15 healthy camels (Camelus dromedarius) different sex group (Males) and B (Females), were investigated for gross microscopic anatomy.Gross studies revealed that located in between third ring trachea laryngopharynx portion pharynx had two lobes, connected by an isthmus.They appeared to be reddish brown colour.The values weight, length, width diameter show no significant difference groups (P>0.05).Histological observation gland consisted a...
Dystocia was observed in a primiparous One year old Red Sokoto Doe and relieved manually, the fetus to be monstrous gross pathological examination showed; cleft sternum, scoliosis, abdominal thoracic evisceration, absence of diaphragm, pulmonary hypoplasia, malpositioned kidney heart, spinal inversion limb ankylosis. The digestive, respiratory, cardiovascular, urogenital skeletal system anomalies were this report. Many malformations malpositioning have been previously reported. above...
The study was conducted to evaluate the incidence of foetal wastage following indiscriminate slaughter pregnant camel in Sokoto state over a period seven months. A total 3172 camels were slaughtered, out which, 1534 females; with 682 (44.46%) fetuses recovered duaring period.441 belongs first trimester, 173 second and 68 third trimester.408 male, 274 female 36 at undifferetial stage.The implication these losses discussed way preventing dilema sugested.

There are several environmental issues pressingly diminishing our planet in the 21st century, one of them is inarguably degradation through plastic waste. It is, however, imperative to explore creative solutions order lessen or eradicate harm caused by millions tons waste that enter environment annually, reusing make sustainable building materials promising strategy. This review looks at recent advancements upcycling waste, with an emphasis on ways incorporate into like asphalt, bricks, and...
Comparative oestrus synchronisation was carried out in 52 Red Sokoto does with the aim of evaluating effectiveness and tightness synchrony prostaglandin F2- alpha (PGF2α) progesterone pessaries for clinical application. Does were randomly divided into PGF2α treated (n = 18), 18) control 16) groups. A double injection protocol PGF2α, 12-days apart, inserted used to synchronise oestrus, no treatment Control group. Six sexually active bucks as heat detectors. Intensive non-intensive detections...
