Veterinary viral diseases are infections caused by viruses that affect animals, ranging from pets to livestock and wildlife. These diseases can vary in severity, from mild symptoms to life-threatening conditions. Some common veterinary viral diseases include:
- Rabies: A fatal viral disease that affects the nervous system of mammals, typically transmitted through bites or saliva from infected animals.
- Canine Parvovirus: A highly contagious virus in dogs, causing severe gastrointestinal distress, dehydration, and even death, especially in puppies.
- Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV): A virus that weakens the immune system of cats, making them more susceptible to other infections and cancers.
- Avian Influenza: A viral infection affecting birds, which can spread rapidly in poultry populations, with some strains able to infect humans.
- Foot-and-Mouth Disease: A highly contagious viral disease affecting cloven-hoofed animals (like cattle, sheep, and pigs), leading to fever, lameness, and loss of appetite.
- African Swine Fever: A deadly viral disease in pigs that causes high mortality rates and is often associated with significant economic losses in the pork industry.
