Final answer:

Scrapie, chronic wasting disease, mad cow disease, brucellosis, and anthrax are diseases that should be considered for dairy cattle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Some diseases that should be considered for dairy cattle, other than the common ones, include:

Scrapie: a disease in sheep

Chronic wasting disease: a disease of deer and elk

Mad cow disease: seen in cattle and can be transmitted to humans through infected nerve tissues

Brucellosis: caused by bacteria transmitted through contaminated milk from infected cows

Anthrax: affects animals such as sheep, goats, cattle, and deer

These diseases can have a significant impact on the health and productivity of dairy cattle, and some may also pose a risk to human health.
