ABSTRACT
A study to investigate the prevalence of cysticercus bovis in cattle slaughtered at Lafia Central abattoir was conducted. A total number of 300 cattle were sampled across breed (White Fulani =291; Sokoto gudali = 9), sex (females = 264; males = 36) and age (< 3 = 147; > 3 years = 153). The kidney, diaphragm, tongue, thigh muscle and heart of each animal was examined for the presence of cysticercus bovis. Out of the 300 cattle examined, 10 (3.30%) were infested with the parasite (Cysticercus bovis). Breed distribution showed that White fulani and Sokoto gudali cattle had 3.30% and 0.00% infestation rate respectively. Sex related prevalence rate was 2.7% and 0.70% for females and males respectively. Animals of < 3 years and > 3 years recorded 1.00% and 2.30% incidence of the parasite. The incidence of cysticercosis was only noticed on kidneys (2.0%) and tongues (1.3%) while no parasite was detected on diaphragm, thigh muscle and heart of the animals. The study confirmed the presence cysticercosis bovis in cattle slaughtered at Lafia Central abattoir. White Fulani, males and animals of 3 years and above are mostly affected than Sokoto gudali, females and animals below the age of 3 years in this study area. Kidney and tongue of cattle are the predilection sites compared to other organs. Good animal husbandry practices such as good sanitation as well as proper meat inspection and consumption of well cook cattle meat should be implemented so as to curtail the menace cysticercusis bovis.

ABSTRACT
YouTube is a relatively new and easily accessible technology tool used to enhance learning of veterinary anatomy via short videos, PowerPoint presentations and illustrations. YouTube can help improve recall of previously learned information by viewing the material repeatedly. The current study indicated that all of the students surveyed are actively utilizing YouTube for learning veterinary anatomy either as a guide for animal cadaveric dissection or for surface anatomy using PowerPoint presentations, videos or illustrations of diagrams.

ABSTRACT
This aim of this research was to find out the time of sexual differentiation, and to describe the gross morphology of the gonads of the rabbit fetuses. Fifty Balady rabbit fetuses were used in this study. The pregnant rabbits were euthanized, dissected and, subsequently, the fetuses were collected. The gross morphological study revealed that the gonads of the rabbit could be grossly differentiated into testes and ovaries from the 24th day postconception. The testes migrated caudally from the caudal kidney pole towards the pelvic inlet where they were situated until the end of the fetal life. The ovaries migrated slightly caudally from the caudal kidney pole to be situated in the sublumbar region.
