Tick-borne cattle disease detected in Barren Co. beef cow From Lisa Tolliver Another case of a potentially dangerous disease of cattle has been detected in Kentucky, according to Kentucky State Veterinarian Dr. Katie Flynn. The disease, Theileria Orientalis Ikedia, is a protozoon known to be carried by the Asian Longhorned tick (ALT). It was detected in a 12-year-old beef cow in Barren County, who presented with jaundice and rapid breathing. "Protecting the health of our livestock is a top priority of the Kentucky Department of Agriculture and the Office of the State Veterinarian," Agriculture Commissioner Dr. Ryan Quarles said. "We are working closely with agriculture producers to protect our herds across the state, and contain these cases." This makes the second confirmed case of Theileria. The first was a beef breed bull in Fleming County that fell ill and died in August. Around the same time, it was reported that a beef breed bull in Hart County also died from Theileria. But a retesting of the bull's blood found Theileria was not present at the time of its death.
