Cantharidin toxicosis in 2 alpacas.

Katharine M Simpson1, Robert N Streeter, Patricia De Souza, Suzanne G Genova, Sandra E Morgan.   

Abstract

Two adult alpacas were presented for recumbency and reluctance to rise. Cantharidin toxicosis was suspected based on clinical and ancillary diagnostic findings. The diagnosis was confirmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry of gastric contents and urine. Despite medical treatment, neither alpaca survived. Blister beetle toxicosis has not been previously described in camelids. Challenges in treatment of affected ruminants or pseudoruminants are noted.
