CAGAYAN — The Provincial Veterinary Office here has started to investigate the deaths of 14 carabaos that were feared to have been due to anthrax.
The 14 carabaos were from anthrax zone in Sto. Niño, specifically in barangay Abariongan Ruar, Balagan and Cabayo; Liwan and Enrile; Logung and Calintaan, Amulung; and in Tamban, Alcala. The Cagayan Provincial Information Office said provincial veterinarian Dr. Noli Buen had alerted the public on buying meat due to reported anthrax.
He said a blood sample will also be conducted to check if the cause of death of the carabaos was due to anthrax disease.Some of the carabaos tested positive for anthrax disease which may have been the cause of death of four carabaos in Barangay Calassitan, Sto. Niño in December last year. The four dead carabaos showed symptoms of anthrax such as sudden death, lack of appetite, difficulty in moving and the presence of blood in their urine.There were 73 people in Brgy. Calassitan, Sto.
