Most ‘alopecic’ cases are the result of '''self-trauma''' or '''nutritional neglect'''.
[[Parasitic Skin Infections - Donkey|Parasitic infestation]] and [[Fungal Skin Infections - Donkey|fungal skin infections]] are also a common cause of alopecia that can be localised or extensive. Both fungal and parasitic disease
often have [[Skin Glossary - Pathology|'''prominent scaling''']]. Alopecia can arise also from '''irritant contact'''
including iatrogenic applications of inappropriate chemicals or from wound
exudate. There is invariably some component of scaling and/or crusting
in these cases. Localised ‘hair breakage’, as a result of rubbing (either tack
or self-trauma), is not classified as true alopecia.
