The domestic ox, the sacred cow of India (Lingard) and the water buffalo
(caribao) of the Philippines contract Surra. It is interesting to notice
that in these animals the disease is relatively mild and recoveries are
frequent.
In the Indian buffalo it causes dulness; advancing emaciation; slight
temperature variations; muco-purulent inflammations of the conjunctiva,
cornea, and pituita; and occasionally eruptions under the breast or
belly.
Among _lesions_ were atrophy, softening of lymph glands, enlarged liver
and spleen (slight), petechiæ and blood extravasations on the
pericardium, epicardium and other serosæ, and on the intestinal mucosa
which sheds its epithelium in patches.
Stall enzoötics in cattle do not seem to affect horses casually. The
disease is easily conveyed to rabbits, house rats and mice, dogs, cats
and apes. Goats and ducks appeared to be immune (Penning).
