Abstract

Bovine tuberculosis is a chronic disease rarely observed in an early age. Our observation of tubercle lesions in the lungs of a three week old calf and confirmation of Mycobacterium bovis strains illustrate that the progression of tuberculosis in neonates can be rapid under natural conditions, contributing to transmission within-herds.
