Elephant Tuberculosis Danger
An outbreak of a human strain of tuberculosis (TB), called Mycobacterium tuberculosis, is infecting and killing captive elephants in the United States. Since 1996, this highly contagious bacterial lung disease has been diagnosed in at least 18 elephants in circuses, including Ringling and Shrine circuses and several zoos. The number of elephants harboring TB is unknown. Six elephants have died and several elephant handlers have tested positive for the disease.
