What is scrapie?

Scrapie is a degenerative and eventually fatal disease affecting the central nervous systems of sheep and goats. It was first described in sheep almost 300 years ago in Europe. Animals may appear incoordinated and weak, become thin, be highly sensitive to noise and sudden movements, have tremors, press their heads against solid objects, star-gaze and repeatedly rub, leading to bare spots – therefore the disease commonly became known as “scrapie.”

Members,

Floods, fires, hurricanes, tornadoes; LA, NJ, when Puerto Rico was straight up erased, if there's a disaster, my friend Niki is one of the first on the ground doing both animal and human assistance/ rescue; going door to door asking if anyone needs supplies and checking for animals left behind or lost. Niki is currently in NC (last check-in was I believe this uploaded clip form Swannanoa) - https://www.facebook.com/share/p/DGVRuWgokNDmvGcN/?mibextid=WC7FNe

If you need assistance or know someone who does, please reach out to us. We'll network in whatever ways we can.

BSRA is thinking of all those affected by this devastating disaster.

Warmly,
Jen W
