Cañon City Incident, Day 42

No horses were lost to the virus this week according to the sitrep.

A West Douglas mare was found dead on May 30 but the loss was attributed to colic.

The total number dead remains at 145.

All fatalities have occurred in pens occupied by the West Douglas horses, displaced from their home range by privately owned livestock.

Approximately 17% were foals.

Updates are now provided on a weekly basis.  Previous reports can be found at the Colorado HMA page.
