Catastrophic death losses in a dairy herd attributed to type D botulism.

Clostridium botulinum type D intoxication was diagnosed as the cause of death of 42 of 67 lactating cows in a southeast Texas dairy herd over an 11-day period. By necessity, the diagnosis was based on clinicopathologic findings, as the toxin could not, by standard laboratory tests, be demonstrated in affected cattle. The predominant clinical findings were hindlimb weakness/ataxia rapidly progressing to persistent recumbency. Affected cattle were alert until just before death, which occurred without notable agonal movements or respirations after 6 to 72 hours' recumbency. Abnormal laboratory findings included neutrophilic leukocytosis (all affected cattle), proteinuria (most affected cattle), slight elevations of serum aspartate transaminase and low serum inorganic phosphorus (some affected cattle), and patchy areas of hyperemia/congestion of the mucosa in the small intestine (postmortem examination of 3 affected cattle). This report confirms the findings of others with regard to the difficulty of demonstrating the causative toxin in C botulinum type D-intoxicated cattle and presents available information on the clinicopathologic features of this intoxication that may aid in the differentiation of this condition from other causes of down cows.
