Bovine viral diarrhea (BVD) is one of the most economically important diseases of cattle. With its very high prevalence, cattle kept on pastures become a source of the virus for the wildlife which, due to their susceptibility, then easily can serve as a source for re-infections of cattle. Therefore,
Neonatal diarrhea was an important cause of morbidity and mortality in a hand-rearing facility for exotic ruminants at the San Diego Wild Animal Park. Studies undertaken to determine the causes of the problem revealed that oocysts of Cryptosporidium sp. were demonstrable in auramine O stained fecal
Evidence for bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) infection was detected in 2009-2010 while investigating a pneumonia die-off in Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis, canadensis), and sympatric mountain goats (Oreamnos americanum) in adjacent mountain ranges in Elko County, Nevada.
Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is a significant viral pathogen of domestic cattle. Worldwide, there is evidence of BVDV exposure and infection in wild ungulates; however, the frequency and significance of such events are unknown. To determine the prevalence and distribution of Colorado deer,
Escherichia albertii has been associated with diarrhea in humans but not with disease or infection in animals. However, in December 2004, E. albertii was found, by biochemical and genetic methods, to be the probable cause of death for redpoll finches (Carduelis flammea) in Alaska. Subsequent
Human noroviruses are the leading cause of severe childhood diarrhea worldwide, yet we know little about their pathogenic mechanisms. Murine noroviruses cause diarrhea in interferon-deficient adult mice but these hosts also develop systemic pathology and lethality, reducing confidence in the
Porcine enteric calicivirus (PEC/Cowden) causes diarrhea in pigs, grows in cell culture, and is morphologically and genetically similar to the Sapporo-like human caliciviruses. Genetic analysis revealed that the tissue culture-adapted (TC) Cowden PEC has one distant and three clustered amino acid
Seventy-five ducklings belonging to nine species of wild ducks were kept in a large floor pen. At about 8 weeks of age, a pintail and two shovelers showed clinical signs of anorexia, diarrhea, and leg weakness before death. Gross pathologic alterations included a pale discoloration of gizzard
Diarrheal feces from three sambar deer and one waterbuck in a wild animal habitat and one white-tailed deer on a wildlife farm in Ohio contained coronavirus particles which were agglutinated by antiserum to bovine coronavirus (BCV) in immune electron microscopy. Three coronavirus strains were
A large-scale study was carried out to determine the prevalence of antibodies against Pestivirus species in wild ruminants and describe their spatial variation in mainland Spain. Serum samples of 1,874 wild ruminants from different regions of this country were collected between the years 2000 and
BACKGROUND
X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) is a primary immunodeficiency characterized by failure of B-cell differentiation and hypogammaglobulinemia. In addition to being susceptible to bacterial infections, patients with XLA are also susceptible to enteroviruses. Systemic enterocytopathogenic
Mycoplasma synoviae (MS) was isolated from the sinus of an adult female "wild-type" turkey found feeding with backyard chickens at a private residence in Randolph County, N.C. Clinical signs included sinusitis, dyspnea, emaciation, diarrhea, and nasal discharge. The bird was seropositive for MS and
Bufavirus (BuV) was first discovered from feces of children with acute diarrhea. It was subsequently detected from several animal species including shrews, bats, and nonhuman primates. In this study, we identified a novel Protoparvovirus, designated RatBuV, from the intestinal contents of wild rats
An adult, wild caught prairie dog was found dehydrated and ataxic, with severe diarrhea. Gross necropsy lesions consisted of scattered pinpoint white foci throughout the liver and spleen. A massive, purulent bronchopneumonia was found also. Direct fluorescent antibody tests and culture of spleen and
BACKGROUND
Mice do not get diarrhea when orally infected with S. enterica, but pre-treatment with oral aminoglycosides makes them susceptible to Salmonella colitis. However, genetically susceptible ItyS mice (Nramp1(G169D) allele) die from systemic infection before they develop diarrhea, so a new
