Abstract excerpt

A unique clinical syndrome characterized by polyphasic rhabdomyositis associated with Sarcocystis neurona has been reported in both free-ranging and managed care California sea lions (CSLs; Zalophus californianus). The pathogenesis of this disease is poorly understood. Specific S. neurona genotypes have been associated with more severe sarcocystosis and mortality in other marine mammals; however, S. neurona...
