Experiments were done to explore the possible relationship between cattle, Australian dog ticks (Rhipicephalus sanguineus) and Anaplasma marginale. Calves' ears were exposed to larval, nymphal and adult ticks on 8, 9 and 7 occasions, respectively. The immature instars fed readily, but the adults attached very poorly to calves. Transtadial transmission of A. marginale was achieved on 6 occasions from 9 attempts: ticks infected as larvae or nymphs were able to transmit at the subsequent stage or stages. Transovarial transmission was not achieved. Six calves supported more than one infestation of ticks. Attached ticks caused the calves no apparent discomfort and calves developed no noticeable skin reactions. An abattoir survey of 200 hides detected no R. sanguineus.
