Diffuse lymphadenitis and disseminated Mycobaterium avium Subs. paratuberculosis infection in two wild eurasian otters (Lutra lutra L. 1758)

Eurasian otters (Lutra lutra, L. 1758) are diving mammals of the Mustelidae family, order Carnivora that live almost exclusively in riparian habitats. They can be carriers of mycobacteria, but Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) has never been reported in these animals.
