<u>Horses show a variety of clinical signs which are often non-specific.</u> In the Camargue outbreak the signs recorded for the 76 equidae included '''fever, ataxia, paresis/paralysis, tremor, hyperaesthesia, grinding of the teeth, abnormal behaviour and hepatitis'''.
<u>[[West Nile Virus|Horses]] show a variety of clinical signs which are often non-specific.</u> In the Camargue outbreak the signs recorded for the 76 equidae included '''fever, ataxia, paresis/paralysis, tremor, hyperaesthesia, grinding of the teeth, abnormal behaviour and hepatitis'''.
The one '''donkey''' affected exhibited '''neurological signs''', followed by a '''short period of remission''', and then '''severe hepatic failure'''. Oudar (1971) described signs of fever, anorexia, constipation, congested ocular mucous membranes and epiphora in a three-year old jenny. A full clinical profile is yet to be established for donkeys affected by WNF.
