| Abstrakt: |
A 23-year-old, male short-beaked echidna (Tachyglossus aculeatus) housed at a North American zoo was successfully treated for flea-associated anaemia, but subsequently died. Cause of death was presumptive septicaemia secondary to splenic lymphoma. This is only the fifth case of neoplasia reported in this monotreme species, and the first from outside of Australia. |
