Abstract: An outbreak of peste des petits ruminants (PPR) in goats was recorded in the area of Rawalpindi city. Sick animals showed serous ocular and nasal discharge, fever up to 106°F, erosive lesions in mouth, diarrhoea and pneumonia. Mortality rate was 80%. Appropriate samples were collected for laboratory analysis. Results of competitive ELISA and immunocapture ELISA determined that the animals were suffering from PPR. Vaccination using tissue culture rinderpest virus (TCRV) was successful to curtail the infection in goats in that area.
