Caption:
From the “Illustrated Manual for the Recognition and Diagnosis of Certain Animal Diseases”, published in 1982, by the Mexico-United States Commission for the Prevention of Foot and Mouth Disease, this photograph depicts a close view of the tail of a bovine, ill with what was determined to be lumpy skin disease (LSD), revealing numerous early skin nodules. Caused by a Poxviridae family member, this virus causes the eruption of skin nodules to take place over all regions of the bovine body.
