rabbits, pododermatitis, clinical signs, hematological parameters.Abstract
It was found that in 55.6% of rabbits, pododermatitis (bumblefoot) was characterized by the presence of erosions and ulcers on the skin of the plantar surface of the feet of the left and right pelvic limbs. Hematological changes in rabbits with ulcerative bumblefoot were manifested by an increase in the average number of platelets and leukocytes by 39.9 and 38.6% within the reference limits, against the background of a decrease in rod-shaped neutrophils by 35.4%.
