Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) primarily affects cloven-hoofed animals, including cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, and deer. While it can infect a wide range of species within these groups, it's most economically significant in livestock. The disease is highly contagious and can spread rapidly among herds, leading to severe productivity losses. Additionally, some wildlife species can carry the virus, potentially complicating control efforts.
Only animals with cloven hooves can contract foot and mouth disease. Horses do not have cloven hooves so therefore they cannot contract the disease
Many diseases are transmitted from animals to man. Such diseases are called as zoonoses. Rabies is noted example of such disease.
No, humans cannot contract distemper. It is a disease that primarily affects animals, such as dogs and ferrets.

An anthroponoses is a disease that is spread from humans to animals. For Example, Primates can contract colds from infected humans.
Goats are the animals who most commonly contract tetanus.

There is not such thing as a disease that only one ethnic groups can contract.
This disease is called emphysema. This happens when you breath out and your lungs don't contract like they normally do.
