The disruption of veterinary services in the tribal areas of Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) during seven years of conflict resulted in serious epidemics of disease. The cessation of dipping was followed by the death of an estimated one million cattle from tick-borne disease. Heavy mortality followed the disruption of control measures for trypanosomiasis. Foot-and-mouth disease and anthrax spread widely in the tribal areas. Rabies, normally restricted to areas bordering Botswana and Mocambique, became widespread. A marked increase in human deaths from anthrax and rabies occurred.
在罗德西亚（现津巴布韦）部落地区长达七年的冲突期间，兽医服务中断，导致了严重的疾病流行。停止药浴后，估计有100万头牛因蜱传疾病死亡。锥虫病控制措施中断后，死亡率很高。口蹄疫和炭疽在部落地区广泛传播。狂犬病，通常局限于与博茨瓦纳和莫桑比克接壤的地区，也变得很普遍。炭疽和狂犬病导致的人类死亡人数显著增加。
