Citrobacter freundii Septicemia in a Stranded Newborn Cuvier`s Beaked Whale (Ziphius cavirostris)

Investigation article published in Journal of Wildlife Diseases

October 1st, 2011

Citrobacter freundii, a gram-negative enterobacterium, may cause fatal septicemia in humans and animals. Its potential pathogenic role in cetaceans (bottlenose dolphins and beluga whales) has been hypothesized. Here we describe fatal C. freundii septicemia in a stranded newborn Cuvier`s beaked whale (Ziphius cavirostris)
