Join us for a discussion about an exciting attempt to determine the cause of a mysterious limb deformity plaguing the Nigerian Dwarf community with Dr. Erica McKenzie of Oregon State University and Dr. Leah Streb of the University of Califorina at Davis.
In this episode we discuss an unpublished study investigating the potential causes of carpal hyperextension in Nigerian Dwarf goats. Data for this project is still being evaluated. This study was proposed and privately funded by a group of Nigerian Dwarf goat owners which is very unique and exciting to have such active involvement and advocacy by animal owners! You can follow along with the progress and results of this study on the Carpal Hyperentension in Goats Facebook page and keep an eye out for Dr. McKenzie and Dr. Streb’s peer-reviewed publication of this research in the future.
