Abstract

The article presents a geographical study regarding the effects of human settlement dynamics on the distribution of tsetse and trypanosomosis in the Mouhoun River Basin in Burkina Faso. The study which has been administered using the analysis of aerial pictures and field surveys to gather entomological, medical and veterinary data on trypanosomoses aims to explain the disappearance of the Human African Trypanosomoses (HAT) on the area while the presence of Animal African Trypanosomoses (AAT) continues to cause economic losses. The scheme shows that the population growth of this distribution is due to the degradation of the environment and at the same time the development of the hydrological structures.
