小反刍动物鼠疫（PPR）或山羊鼠疫是一种由副粘病毒科的麻疹病毒属引起的山羊和绵羊（不太常见）的病毒性传染病。该病毒在生物学和抗原性上与牛瘟（RP）病毒相关，临床上它在山羊中模仿RP。该病广泛分布于赤道非洲和阿拉伯半岛（Taylor 1984）、印度（Shaila等人1989）、沙特阿拉伯和埃塞俄比亚（Roeder等人1994）。在非洲和阿拉伯，只有山羊受到影响，但在印度，在绵羊中发现了这种疾病（Shaila等人，1989年），随后的所有疫情都发生在绵羊中（Shaila，未发表的结果）。1994年7月至9月期间，在马哈拉施特拉邦拉图尔地区9个村庄的山羊死亡率实地报告之后，乌吉尔兽医和动物科学学院的一个小组调查了病因并收集了尸检材料和血清用于诊断。研究表明，只有山羊（所有年龄段）受到影响。与山羊一起吃草的绵羊、牛和水牛没有表现出任何类型的疾病。大多数受感染的山羊群表现为同时感染的精神、肉体和民主管理。作为国家根除牛瘟项目的一部分，该地区正在进行RP疫苗接种。结果，许多小反刍动物被注射了组织培养RP疫苗。在一些村庄，疫情发生在疫苗接种小组到达之前，而在其他村庄，疫情发生在RP疫苗接种之后。由于一些农民提出反对意见，疫苗接种计划并不是百分之百有效。孕妇和6个月以下的儿童没有接种疫苗。
PESTE des petits ruminants (PPR), or goat plague, is a viral conta-gion of goats and, less commonly, of sheep, caused by the Morbillivirus genus of the Paramyxoviridae family. The virus is biologically and antigenically related to rinderpest (RP) virus and clinically it mimics RP in goats. The disease is widely distributed in equatorial Africa and the Arabian peninsula (Taylor 1984), India (Shaila and others 1989), Saudi Arabia and Ethiopia (Roeder and others 1994). In Africa and Arabia only goats have been affected, but in India the disease has been detected in sheep (Shaila and others 1989) and all the subsequent outbreaks have occurred in sheep (Shaila, unpublished results). Following field reports on goat mortality in nine villages in the Latur District of Maharashtra State during July to September 1994, a team from the College of Veterinary and Animal Sciences in Udgir investigated the aetiology and collected necropsy mate-rials and sera for diagnosis.The study revealed that only goats (of all ages) were affected. Sheep, cattle and buffaloes grazing alongside goats did not show any type of illness. Most of the affected goat flocks showed con-current infections of psoroptic, sarcoptic and demodectic mange. RP vaccination was being carried out in this area as a part of a national project on rinderpest eradication. As a result, many of the small ruminants were being given tissue culture RP vaccine. In some villages, the outbreak appeared prior to the arrival of the vaccination squads and, in others, after RP vaccination. The vaccination programme was not 100 per cent effective as some farmers raised objections. Pregnant does and kids below six months of age were not vaccinated.
