Abstract
Lesions in the brain and spinal cord characteristic of enzootic ataxia were detected as early as 99 days of foetal age in foetal lambs bred on land where enzootic ataxia occurred. The lesions did not appear if the ewe had received supplementary copper during pregnancy and were also absent from foetal lambs obtained from ewes grazing on land on which the disease had not occurred. It is suggested that the primary events responsible for the development of ataxia may take place shortly after mid-term.
