title: Clinical observations on bovine parasitic otitis in Tanzania.
abstract: Between January 1982 and December 1989 more than 5,000 clinical cases of bovine parasitic otitis were examined. Clinical signs were mild in early cases and were characterised by dullness, anorexia and occasional head shaking, but were severe in long standing cases where the major presenting clinical signs were dark brown aural discharges which soiled the hair below and in front of the ear, emaciation, central nervous signs, recumbency and death.
