Non-tsetse transmitted animal Trypanosomoses (NTTAT) result from infection by Trypanosoma evansi, T. equiprdum, and T. vivax. The latter is present both in South America and in tsetse depopulated areas of Africa. Since the inception of the OIE group, numerous studies have been carried out to result in a better understanding of this infection and hope for immunological control.
