About Disease
T. evansi, a protozoan parasite, causes a trypanosomosis known as ‘surra’. T. evansi infects the blood of the vertebrate host, causing fever, weakness, and lethargy which lead to weight loss and anemia. It affects a large number of wild and domesticated animal species in Africa, Asia, and Central and South America. The principal host species varies geographically, but camels, horses, buffalos and cattle are particularly affected, although other animals, including wildlife, are also susceptible.
