Description

A Young Japanese serow was found in weakened condition and caught for preservation in a low-mountainous area of Komatsu city Ishikawa Prefecture. At that time, the serow was extremely emaciated and had abscesses with palisade parenchyma showing wide spread keratinization on the skin area around the coronary regions of the left fore and hind limbs. Reddish knots were also found on the lips. Since the animal died the next day, an autopsy was carried out to confirm the presence of Parapoxvirus particles by electron microscopy.
