This case report describes a Sarcoptic mange infestation in a West African Dwarf goat with severe pruritus, alopecia, and crusting. Skin scraping and microscopic identification of Sarcoptes scabies mites confirmed the diagnosis. Treatment included ivermectin administration and supportive care. The goat showed marked clinical improvement within two weeks of treatment, underscoring the importance of early diagnosis and effective treatment protocols in managing mange infestations in small ruminants.
