    Author: Baskin GB, Montali RJ, Bush M, Quan TJ, Smith E.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1977 Nov 01; 171(9):908-12. PubMed ID: 336591.
    Abstract:
    Within a 2 1/2-month period, Yersinia pseudotuberculosis infection occurred in 3 blesbok (Damaliscus dorcas), 1 dik-dik (Madoqua kirkii), and 1 giant anteater (Myrmecophaga tridactyla) at the National Zoological Park, Washington, DC. Lesions consisted of fibrinonecrotic enteritis and peritonitis, mesenteric lymphadenitis, and embolic pyogranulomatous lesions in the liver, spleen, and lungs. Feed contaminated with the feces of wild rats and pigeons was thought to be the source of infection.
