Abstract

An 1-year old male siberian tiger showing severe vomiting and blackish and frothy diarrhea for 3 days were dead in Seoul Zoo. Gross finding at necropsy were small amount of blood were found in abdominal cavity and intestine. In small and large intestine, there were necrosis and detachment epithelial cell of intestinal mucosa in histopathology. The presence of feline panleukopenia virus (FPV) antigen was detected by PCR. In microbiology, E.coli and Enterococcus faecalis were isolated from the stool. This case was diagnosed in death induced by FPV infection according to CBC, histopathology and PCR.
