Coccidioidomycosis in a California sea otter (Enhydra lutris)

LH Cornell, KG Osborn, Antrim JE Jr, and JG Simpson


ABSTRACT

A weak and emaciated California sea otter (Enhydra lutris) was found stranded on Atascadero Beach in Morro Bay, California. It died three weeks after capture. A diagnosis of coccidioidomycosis was confirmed by histology, serology and culture. This is believed to be the first reported case of this disease from the Morro Bay area of San Luis Obispo County, California as well as the first reported case in a free-ranging marine mammal.
