Animal health is the state of physical and physiological wellbeing of animals, maintained through disease prevention, diagnosis, treatment, nutrition, and welfare management. Veterinary Healthcare addresses infectious, parasitic, metabolic, and zoonotic conditions across livestock, companion, and wild animals, integrating clinical care with herd-level surveillance, biosecurity, and public-health considerations. Because many animal pathogens affect productivity and some are transmissible to humans, animal health is central to food security, economic livelihoods, and the One Health interface between animal, human, and environmental wellbeing. Research relevant to this journal addresses infectious and parasitic disease, diagnostics, and risk factors in animal populations. Studies include coprological examination of ovine fasciolosis within a community-based sheep-breeding program, serological evidence of influenza A infection in South American camelids, seroprevalence and risk factors for camel brucellosis, contagious bovine pleuropneumonia, parasitological examination of fecal samples from sheep, goats, and cattle, and isolation of potentially pathogenic bacteria from domestic dog stool. Related work examines aflatoxin exposure through dairy products, the role of animals during viral pandemics, and environmental influences on animal health. The journal publishes peer-reviewed research on veterinary infectious disease, parasitology, epidemiology, and animal welfare across diverse species and production systems.
