''Bacillus anthracis'' causes tissues to darken and swell due to oedema and necrosis. It causes capillary thrombosis, the leakage of fluid through damaged capillary endothelium. Systemic shock from circulatory collapse, [[Haemostasis - Pathology#Haemorrhagic Disease Due To Vascular Fragility|haemorrhagic disease]] and oedema lead to death of the animal. It causes severe systemic disease that can result in [[Septicaemia and Enteritis, Bacterial|enteritis]] and [[Peritonitis #In pigs|Peritonitis in pigs]].
