Abstract

Pasteurella multocida is the most common bacterial pathogen in laboratory rabbits. Pasteurellosis refers to a group of illnesses caused by this organism. P. multocida is most commonly found in rabbit nasal cavities, where it causes rhinitis or chronic asymptomatic infection. Infection from the nasal cavity can spread to other parts of the body. Among other clinical manifestations, this can result in pneumonia, otitis media, conjunctivitis, genital tract infections, abscesses and septicemia.
