The prevalence of border disease virus in a flock of Targhee sheep in southern Idaho was determined by serologic and virologic techniques. Of 249 ewes, 73 (29%) were seropositive to the antigenically related togavirus, bovine seropositive to the antigenically related togavirus, bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV). Concurrent testing of sera from 337 neonatal lambs indicated that 172 (51%) were seropositive for BVDV. It was observed that a high percentage (35%) of the BVDV-seropositive lambs were derived from seronegative ewes. Immunotolerance of the ewe was considered as the explanation for the lack of serologic relationship between seropositive lambs and their seronegative dams. Eleven cytopathogenic viruses were isolated from nasal and vaginal specimens obtained from 80 clinically healthy ewes within 24 hours of parturition. The viral isolates were demonstrated to be antigenically related to BVDV by direct immunofluorescence. Six of the 11 isolates were obtained from BVDV-seronegative ewes.
