Fatal clostridial enterotoxemia (Clostridium glycolicum) in an ornate Nile monitor (Varanus ornatus)
J Zoo Wildl Med.
2006 Mar.
Abstract
Enterotoxemia caused by Clostridium glycolicum was identified as the cause of circulatory collapse and death in a female, 3-yr-old, captive-bred ornate Nile monitor (Varanus ornatus). Anaerobic culture of fecal samples from 12 other monitor lizards from the collection failed to demonstrate the presence of this pathogen.
