Ethno veterinary medicine is the scientific term for traditional animal health care, encompasses the knowledge, skills, methods, practices, and beliefs about animal health care found among the members of a community. The knowledge base differs not only from region to region but also among and within communities. It has been developed through trial and error and deliberate experimentation. Therefore, it is less systematic, less formalized, and not universally recognized as a valid method of disease control in animals.

While traditional healers have less to offer in the treatment and control of epidemic and endemic infectious diseases like foot and mouth disease, septicemia, anthrax, and acute life-threatening bacterial diseases, they can cope with a reasonable spectrum of common diseases such as diarrhea, wounds, colds, worms, coccidiosis, and reproductive disorders.

Ethno veterinary medicinal plants used extensively and quite effectively for primary health care treatment to make domestic animals productive and healthy. The indigenous knowledge of the veterinary health care system acquired by traditional herbal healers is orally transformed from one generation to other.
