Farm animals. Although, in the US we vaccinate farm animals against anthrax. World wide, however, sheep and cows are the most common victims of anthrax. It is more of a livestock disease than a human one. Humans are certainly susceptible to anthrax and if you walk around barefoot on a farm with an open cut you may find yourself with an anthrax infection. Anthrax is not very dangerous unless it is prepared as a weapon. You are in more danger from influenza or pneumonia. ;)

Anthrax is an acute disease caused by Bacillius anthracis. The progression of the disease depends on how the host becomes infected, if the bacteria are inhaled it is lung infection, if they are introduced to the blood it is pulmonary, and if they are eaten it is gastrointestinal.
Anthrax bacteria can be found in soil, where they form spores that can survive for long periods. They are more common in regions with alkaline soils, like parts of the United States, Africa, and Asia. Livestock grazing in contaminated areas can also increase the risk of exposure to anthrax spores.
It is can be called necrocardiomyopathy, cardiac myonecrosis , myocardial infarction, or simply a heart attack.
Early symptoms of a biological attack may be similar to those of common illnesses, such as fever, cough, and body aches. However, certain specific symptoms may be more severe or unusual in the case of a biological attack, depending on the type of agent used. If there is suspicion of a biological attack, it is important to seek medical help immediately.
Myocardial Infarction (MI) is a heart attack, also called a coronary event. Most common cause of MI is blocked blood vessels in the heart.
