Summary
It has long been recognised that N'Dama (Bos taurus) cattle from west Africa are naturally trypanotolerant, in stark contrast to Bos indicus cattle such as the Kenyan Boran (reviewed by Murray et al., 1984). See detailed information in OMIA:001789-9903 : Trypanotolerance in Bos (oxen, cattle).
