Abstract: The purpose of this collection is for APHIS interstate movement requirements to minimize any contact between high-risk animals and healthy animals, while the animal identification requirements help trace scrapie-positive and scrapie-exposed animals. The APHIS indemnity program encourages flock owners to report scrapie signs and to eliminate scrapie from their flocks.
