In general
- Main clinical expression is as secondary invaders of previously damaged lung tissue due to viral or parasitic involvement or environmental stress
- Some are initial pathogens in their own right while others can damage the tract allowing invasion by more pathogenic types
In Dogs
Tuberculosis - Dogs
Nocardiosis
In Cats
Chlamydiosis, Feline
Mycoplasma felis
In Horses
Strangles
Streptococcus equi subsp. zooepidemicus
Glanders

In Sheep
Laryngeal Chondritis
CAR bacillus
- As in cattle
Enzootic Pneumonia - Lambs
Melioidosis
In Pigs
Atrophic Rhinitis
Necrotic laryngitis in pigs
- As in cattle
- Caused by infection with Fusobacterium necrophorum
Enzootic Pneumonia - Pigs
Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae
Pasteurellosis - Pigs
Contagious Porcine Pleuropneumonia
Glasser's Disease
Streptococcal pneumonia
- Caused by Streptococcus suis type II
Tuberculosis in pigs
- Pigs are susceptible to the Mycobacterium spp. causing tuberculosis in cattle
- Rarely extends to lungs after haematogenous spread from ingested bacteria causing tubercles with various degrees of calcification, encapsulation and caseation
In Rabbits
Snuffles
- Caused by Pasteurella multocida, less commonly and/or Bordetella bronchiseptica
- Clinical signs (nasal discharge, sneezing) result from an acute to chronic rhinitis
CAR bacillus
- As in cattle
