Number of Dead or
Sick Animals Reported
This
table uses data reported on the on-line
reporting form for the current calendar year.
This
data is used to detect trends in mortality. Along with the laboratory
test results, this data helps establish a normal wildlife mortality
baseline that may help determine if an outbreak of WNV is occurring. Use
of the data may help determine which species of birds or mammals are most
susceptible and most resistant to WNV.
