twitterAnthrax disease kills cattle in Gerlac
Thursday, Aug. 17, 2000 | 9:57 a.m.
Tests confirmed the cattle that died over the past week were infected with a pure strain of the deadly disease, the Nevada Department of Agriculture said on Wednesday..
Officials believe the outbreak orginated during a recent ditch clearning effort that released the soil-borne spores onto pasture grasses.
Anthrax is highly contagious and other ranchers in the area were being encouraged to vaccinate their livestock.
