		Trichomoniasis, or "trich," is a venereal disease of cattle caused by a protozoan parasite, Tritrichomonas foetus.
		The chances of diagnosing trichomoniasis by examining a single, cultured sampling from the prepuce of an infected bull has been estimated to be as low as 78 percent.
		Since trichomoniasis is a venereal disease and can only be transmitted by sexual contact or by infected mechanical carriers brought in contact with the reproductive organs, the best prevention is to never allow infected bulls or cows to come into contact with a susceptible herd.
