ℹ️Information for horse owners ℹ️

From our Young Member President Dr Jordie Flood

⚠️ Recent Strangles Outbreak – Central Coast, New South Wales ⚠️

Strangles is a highly contagious respiratory disease in horses caused by the bacterium Streptococcus equisubspecies equi. Recent outbreaks have been reported in Central Coast, New South Wales.

It spreads easily through direct contact with infected horses or indirect contactwith contaminated gear, feed, water, or handlers’ clothing.
Horses usually show signs within 3 – 8 days of infection.
Strangles can affect horses of any age and is most common where horses are kept in close contact — such as studs, shows, and agistment centres.

❗️Clinical signs to watch for:❗️
• Fever (39.0 – 40.5 °C)
• Nasal discharge or runny nose
• Cough
• Painful, swollen lymph nodes (especially under the jaw)
• Difficulty swallowing or breathing
• Depression or dullness

🚨 If your horse shows any of these signs, isolate it away from other horses immediately and contact your veterinarian.

Preventing spread:
• Keep sick horses separated
• Practice good hygiene, including frequently washing hands
• Avoid sharing gear, feed bins, or water troughs
• Wash hands, boots, and clothing after handling sick horses
• Quarantine new arrivals for at least 2 weeks

Here is some more good information for further reading from disease surveillance in the UK. It covers the clinical signs and management strategies. It does mention a newer vaccine that is not yet available here and is different to the one we have in Australia.

Did you know that baby goats can get tick paralysis? This little one was a little bit wobbly on the legs but was luckily breathing well at the time of tick treatment. 🐾

🦇 Health alert for Northern NSW residents 🦇

With a rise in sick flying foxes being reported across Northern NSW and Southern Queensland, locals are urged NOT to touch or handle any bats — no matter how distressed or injured they may appear.

⚠️ Why?
Flying foxes and microbats can carry Australian bat lyssavirus, a deadly virus similar to rabies. It can be transmitted to humans through bites, scratches, or contact with bat saliva via open wounds, eyes, or mouth.

It may be heartbreaking to see a bat in distress, but please don’t touch it. Call your local wildlife rescue service instead.

📞 If you spot a bat in trouble, contact:
WIRES: 1300 094 737
Northern Rivers Wildlife Carers: 02 6628 1866
Tweed Valley Wildlife Carers: 02 6672 4789

🧼 If bitten or scratched:
▪️Wash the wound thoroughly with soap and water for at least 15 minutes
▪️Apply an antiseptic with antiviral action
▪️Seek medical attention immediately for post-exposure treatment.

🚫 Remember:
There is no effective treatment once symptoms of lyssavirus begin — early action is critical.

🌡️ With warmer months ahead, bat activity will increase. Stay safe, stay informed, and help protect our community.
