Bovine familial convulsions and ataxia in Saskatchewan and Alberta.

Abstract excerpt

Bovine familial convulsion and ataxia, a heritable disorder, is present in crossbred Aberdeen Angus cattle in western Canada. Though the prevalence appears to be low, this genetic defect might become widespread if not controlled. Characteristic histological lesions were seen in the lingula, uvula, or both, of all affected calves regardless of their age.
