Bloat is an over distention of the rumen and reticulum with the gases of fermentation. Free gas bloat is a secondary tympany where vagus indigestion or other innervations disorders, esophageal papilloma, lymphosarcoma and esophageal foreign bodies are examples of its causes. A 10-month old West African Dwarf buck was presented at the Veterinary Teaching Hospital University of Ibadan with a distended abdomen which was more towards the left side following a fight between the buck and another buck in the same pen. The distention occurred gradually over a week. Physical examination was performed and a left ping was heard on percussion of the distention after which the animal was taken into the theatre for exploratory rumenotomy. When bloating occurs, these gases cannot escape, they continue to build up and cause severe distention of the abdomen, reflected by discomfort and acute pain, furthermore bloat cause decrease respiratory rate due to compression of the thorax followed by Dyspnea and difficult breathing, however the compression might affected heart lead to increase its rate and intensity causing reduced performance, activity and death in some cases.
