A cross\u2010sectional study was employed with the objective to isolate and identify\n Mannheimia haemolytica<\/jats:italic>\n and\n Pasteurella multocida<\/jats:italic>\n from outbreak cases of small ruminants in selected districts of Afar region, Ethiopia from December 2021 to June 2023. A total of 192 nasal swab samples were collected using purposive sampling technique and bacterial isolation and identification was carried out as per the standard bacteriological methods. Descriptive statistics and Pearson's chi\u2010square (\n \u03c7<\/jats:italic>\n 2) were employed to check the association between occurrence of the disease and associated risk factors and statistical significance was set at\n p<\/jats:italic>\n <\u00a00.05.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n \n In the current study, the\u00a0overall bacterial isolation rate\u00a0from clinical cases of ovine and caprine pneumonic pasteurellosis was found to be 24.48% (\n n<\/jats:italic>\n = 47\/192), of which\n M. haemolytica<\/jats:italic>\n accounted for 17.19% (\n n<\/jats:italic>\n = 33\/192) of bacterial isolates, while\u00a0\n P. multocida<\/jats:italic>\n \u00a0accounted for 7.29% (\n n<\/jats:italic>\n = 14\/192) from isolates recovered from nasal swabs. Moreover, the present study also indicated that goats were more affected by this disease with the bacterial occurrence rate of 32.86% (\n n<\/jats:italic>\n = 23\/70) as compared to sheep with 19.67% (\n n<\/jats:italic>\n = 24\/122) in the study districts. There was statistically significant difference across species (\n p<\/jats:italic>\n = 0.041) of the study animals with occurrence of the ovine and caprine pasteurellosis in nasal swabs. The study further revealed significant variation in the incidence rates of presumptive\n Pasteurella<\/jats:italic>\n isolates across the study areas with Asayita recording the highest rate at 19.70% (\n n<\/jats:italic>\n = 13\/66), followed by Dubti at 17.46% (\n n<\/jats:italic>\n = 11\/63), and Mille at 14.29% (\n n<\/jats:italic>\n = 9\/63) even though no statistical association was observed.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n \n The present study finding indicated that\n M. haemolytica<\/jats:italic>\n is the predominant bacterium associated with pneumonic pasteurellosis in ovine and caprine in the study areas. This could highlights the need for developing a polyvalent vaccine incorporating\n M. haemolytica<\/jats:italic>\n strains.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/vms3.70802","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,9]],"date-time":"2026-01-09T07:45:07Z","timestamp":1767944707000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Isolation and Identification of\n Pasteurella<\/i>\n Species From Pneumonic Cases of Ovine and Caprine in Selected Districts of Afar Region, Ethiopia"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"12","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7026-6267","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Teshager","family":"Dubie","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Sciences Department of Veterinary Medicine Samara University Samara Ethiopia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Biniam","family":"Abera","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Sciences Department of Veterinary Medicine Samara University Samara Ethiopia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Oumer Abdulkadir","family":"Ebrahim","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Sciences Department of Veterinary Medicine Samara University Samara Ethiopia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2479-4653","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fanuel Bizuayehu","family":"Yihunie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Sciences Department of Veterinary Medicine Samara University Samara Ethiopia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_13_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.actatropica.2017.02.017"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s11250-018-1613-8"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1155\/2024\/5605552"},{"issue":"5","key":"e_1_2_13_5_1","first-page":"32","article-title":"Isolation and Identification of Mannhemia and Pasturella Species From Pneumonic and Apparently Healthy Cattle and Their Antibiogram Susceptibility Pattern in Bedelle District, Western Ethiopia","volume":"6","author":"Abera D.","year":"2014","journal-title":"African Journal of Bacteriology Research"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2147\/VMRR.S365267"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5897\/JCAB2016.0449"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_8_1","unstructured":"Aschalew Z.1998. \u201cOvine Pneumonic Pasteurellosis in North Shoa.\u201d DVM thesis Addis Ababa University."},{"key":"e_1_2_13_9_1","unstructured":"Belay M.2007. \"Study of Ovine Pasteurollosis in Wollo Zone of Amhara Region Ethiopia.\" DVM thesis Addis Ababa University."},{"key":"e_1_2_13_10_1","volume-title":"Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia: Central Statistical Agency: Agricultural Sample Survey","author":"CSA","year":"2021"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2460\/ajvr.67.5.890"},{"issue":"2","key":"e_1_2_13_12_1","first-page":"101","article-title":"Molecular Detection of Pasteurella multocida and Mannheimia haemolytica in Sheep Respiratory Infections in Ethiopia","volume":"8","author":"Deressa A.","year":"2010","journal-title":"Journal of Applied Research in Veterinary Medicine"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_13_1","unstructured":"Desta H.2009. \u201cEstimation of Weight and Age of Sheep and Goats.\u201d ESGPIP Technical Bulletin No. 23.
