Abstract
Horses constitute an important group of live stock. The horses have a unique place in
the Hindu mythology. India has 1.77 million equines comprising 0.70 million horses and
ponies, 0.29 million mules and 0.78 million donkeys. These animals are used for draught
and transport especially in hilly, arid and semi-arid zones where motorable roads are
inadequate or not feasible. Remaining 2% equines, belonging to elite group, are kept
in organized sectors and provide services to the army, police, border security force,
racing industry, sports and for ceremonial parades. Efficient performance of equines
for these activities depends upon a sound health and freedom from various ailments
including infectious diseases.
