'''''Cattle'''''
Tritrichomoniasis is notifiable to the World Organisation for Animal Health ([http://www.oie.int/ OIE])
Proteinases secreted by T foetus degrade substrates such as fibrinogen, albumin and immunoglobulins, thus altering the biological environment and resulting in embryonic death.
Pyometra is occasionally observed in females but males show no clinical signs.
For more information see [[Trichomonosis - Cattle]]
