Infectious diseases in animals

Diseases can be passed from one animal to another, via direct contact, contagion, or via inhalation. Highly infectious diseases may cause epidemics, with substantial losses. Infectious animal diseases include the four main categories of animal diseases: viral, bacterial, fungal and parasitic.
