Blindness from conjunctivitis caused by Actinobacillus suis was found in a Canada goose (Branta canadensis) from a wildlife refuge in Kentucky. Lesions were not observed elsewhere and other body organs were grossly normal. Actinobacillus spp. in birds is rare and this is apparently the first report of conjunctivitis resulting from this infection in waterfowl.
在一只来自肯塔基州野生动物保护区的加拿大黑雁(Branta canadensis)身上发现了由猪放线杆菌引起的结膜炎导致的失明。在其他部位未观察到病变,其他身体器官大体正常。放线杆菌属在鸟类中很罕见,这显然是关于水禽感染该菌导致结膜炎的首次报道。
