Dear all.
On Belugas of the Churchill river estuary, Manitoba, Canada we saw some animals with a lot of skin damages. In the websites: http://www.medvet.umontreal.ca/pathologie_microbiologie/beluga/anglais/virus_ang.asp
we found a report about herpes like virus found on Belugas in the St. Lawrence estuary.
We were wondering, whether the skin marks of these Churchill Belugas caused of the same virus or could it have other reasons?
