- Bluetongue disease is a non-contagious and insect-borne disease of ruminants, mainly sheep and less frequently cattle, goats, buffalo, and deer.
- It is caused by the Bluetongue virus (BTV).
- Major signs are high fever, excessive salivation, swelling of the face and tongue and cyanosis of the tongue. Swelling of the lips and tongue gives the tongue its typical blue appearance, though this sign is confined to a minority of the animals. Nasal symptoms may be prominent, with nasal discharge and stertorous respiration.
