OTECT YOUR HERD
FROM THE RAVAGES OF
BLACKLEG
AND
MALIGNANT
EDEMA
Blackleg and malignant edema are acute, infectious dis-
eases which are very similar, both in symptoms and post-
mortem findings. Before preventive vaccination against
blackleg became common practice, it was one of the most
wide-spread and deadly of the common diseases of cattle.
Blackleg has been encountered in practically all range-
grazing areas.
Malignant edema, although not as wide-spread as black-
leg, is actually much more prevalent than was previously
thought. It was formerly believed that malignant edema oc-
curred quite infrequently and only in certain well d' fined
areas. Recent cases in many new areas indicate not only
that the infection is spreading, but that it may have always
been a greater problem than was recognized,
Blackleg is caused by a highly infectious organism
known as Clostridium Chauvei. The organism which causes
Malignant edema bears the technical name of Clostridium
Septicus. Both blackleg and malignant edema have many
similar characteristics and both are usually rapidly fatal
to cattle.
Vaccination is the only sure way of preventing Llackleg
and malignant edema losses. Calves vaccinated at a very
early age do not always build quite as high or durable im-
munity as older calves. As a result. when calves are vac-
cinated at an early age they should be re-vaccinated at
weaning time to insure adequate protection.
Vaccinating to protect against blackleg and malignant
edema may be donne when the animals are one to six months
cid. Unless losses have been experienced in extremely young
calves, it is probably best from the standpoint of immunity
pas:Az:TA to vacc.nate between three and six months of age.
When 'reak.eg or malignant edema losses occur in an
unvaccinated herd, vaccination will not immediately check
further losses. Regardless of the potency of the vaccine
used, losses may continue for from 8 to 14 days, as it takes
time try Ms :id up sufficient immunity for complete protection,
The safest and surest method of preventing losses is
vaceinatiOn at an early age, well ahead of exposure.
