The subject analyzed in this particular thesis is concerned with how the well-being and welfare of agricultural production animals is affected in livestock holdings (herds, farms, units), specifically of ewes and their lambs from infectious diseases originating from pathogens, micro-organisms (e.g. bacteria).
More specifically they are analyzed for certain diseases that adversely affect the well-being of mothers during pregnancy, after lambing and during the lactation period of their little ones.
