Molecular evidence for Mycobacterium bovis infection in wild Chilean hawk (Accipiter chilensis)

Abstract: The present study reports a case of tuberculosis in a juvenile Chilean hawk ( Accipiter chilensis ). Granulomas were identified in the liver, intestine and mesentery. Several of these granulomas contained acid-fast bacilli suggesting a mycobacterial infection through ingestion. Molecular...
