“…Symptoms in animals infected with medium, medium-high, and high doses consisted of subdued behavior (decreased vocalizations and limp tails), lethargy, inappetence, decreased water intake, decreased grooming behavior with piloerection (rough coats), ocular and nasal discharges, conjunctivitis, tachypnea (increased respiratory rate), and dyspnea (difficulty breathing with abdominal lifts). Natural cases of glanders in humans and other animals exhibit many of these signs, namely malaise, excessive lacrimation (tearing), nasal discharge, conjunctivitis, tachypnea, and dyspnea [ 1 , 6 , 7 , 12 – 16 , 18 , 45 , 46 ]. These hallmarks also have been reported in murine and equine experimental models of glanders [ 26 , 27 , 31 ].…”
