Goats are the resilient backbone of West African agriculture driving food security, economic self-reliance, and deep-rooted cultural traditions. Indigenous Goat Breeds of Nigeria and Their Natural Habitat is a comprehensive guide that offers a definitive, groundbreaking exploration into the genetics, ecology, and vital preservation of these remarkably adaptive anımals.

Spanning Nigeria's diverse landscapes, trom the ard Sahel Savannah to the humid Rainforests, this book bridges the gap between traditional livestock husbandry and cutting-edge agricultural science. Whether you are an animal scientist, a veterinary professional, or a commercial investor, the content within provides unparalleled insights into how geography, evolution, and human culture shape native caprine populations.

Inside, you will find:

  • An exhaustive biological and economic analysis of primary indigenous populations, including the prolific West African Dwarf, the world-renowned Red Sokoto, and the drought-resilient Sahel Goat.
  • The extraordinary physiological and nutritional mechanisms that grant these breeds their elite heat tolerance and natural disease resistance.
  • Beyond biology, it delivers a practical look at modern commercial production, housing designs, and dry-season feed preservation strategies.
  • As climate change accelerates and the global demand for sustainable farming rises, this book serves as both an essential educational cornerstone and an actionable roadmap for precision livestock farming and rural economic empowerment.
