Fatal Enteritis in a Tiger caused by Physaloptera praeputialis
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 06 April 2009
Extract
A male Malay tiger was brought to the Clifton Zoological Gardens in July, 1908. He was then very thin and fed badly. After a time he settled down in his new quarters, and ate his food with greater relish. He appeared to be in good health and his coat was sleek and fine, but he never jumped or played in the usual way of his species. On February 4th he vomited, and had a severe attack of diarrhoea. His breathing became less abdominal and more thoracic in character, and death occurred two days later.
