Johne’s

Johne’s disease is a fatal gastrointestinal disease of sheep and other ruminants, including goats caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis. This infection is contagious and is commonly passed in the manure of infected adult animals. Lambs typically become infected when they swallow water, milk or feed that has been contaminated by manure from infected animals. Clinical signs include rapid weight loss and diarrhea.
