Abstract
A dromedary camel breeding herd consisting of 16 female and 2 male camels experienced an abortion storm over a period of 2 years. Fifteen (94%) of the 16 female camels aborted during the last stage of pregnancy. Trypanosoma evansi was directly identified by the buffy coat technique in 7 (39%) of the camels and in 15 (83%) with the indirect in-house antibody ELISA developed at the Central Veterinary Research Laboratory (CVRL). One bull and two newly introduced female camels were negative in both tests.
