Guttural pouch infection causing '''haemorrhage, empyaema and chondroids''', is seen in the donkey. Fungal infection may be minimised by provision of <u>good quality forage and clean air management</u>. '''Empyaema and chondroids''' may manifest with chronic coughing, nasal discharge and swelling behind the jaw. Two cases have been encountered at [http://drupal.thedonkeysanctuary.org.uk The Donkey Sanctuary] in which a stenotic guttural pouch flap led to accumulation of pus in the affected pouch that was resistant to treatment.
