Bacterial valvular endocarditis in a black bear from Labrador

S McBurney, AM Veitch, and PY Daoust


ABSTRACT

In fall 1991, a radio-collared black bear (Ursus americanus) in northern Labrador (Canada) died from valvular endocarditis caused by coagulase-positive Staphylococcus aureus, with widespread dissemination of the infection to other organs shortly before death. Apparently, this is the first reported case of bacterial valvular endocarditis in a wild black bear.
