Description of the Cattle and Small Ruminants Trade Network in Senegal and Implication for the Surveillance of Animal Diseases

Figure 5

Geographical representation of the livestock network links by the frequency of their activity over the year. Backbone links were active in more than 9 months, frequent links were active between 4 and 9 months, intermediate links were active for 2 or 3 months, and occasional links were active for only 1 month of the study period. We decided to only show the administrative departments of Senegal on these maps. Therefore, concerning national trade, the origin and the destination are both Senegalese departments, while for international trades, they may be a Senegalese department or a central point in a foreign country.
