Many<unk>  species are zoonotic pathogens, and humans can acquire an infection from domestic animal bites. In cattle, sheep, and birds,<unk>  species can cause a life-threatening pneumonia; in cats and dogs, however,<unk>  is not a cause of disease, and constitutes part of the normal flora of the nose and mouth.<unk>  haemolytica is a species that infects mainly cattle and horses: P. multocida is the most frequent causative agent in human<unk>  infection. Common symptoms of<unk> sis in humans include swelling, cellulitis, and bloody drainage at the site of the wound. Infection may progress to nearby joints, where it can cause further swelling, arthritis, and abscesses.<unk>  spp. are generally susceptible to chloramphenicol, the penicillins, tetracycline, and the macrolides. The common occurrence of the bacteria is a reason to be medically proactive and defensive (antibacterial treatments are often necessary) if a bite occurs. Several vaccine preparations were used to prevent<unk>  infection. New regimens for vaccination and vaccine formulation showed to be promising for the control of the pathogen. In animals P. multocida is also known to cause morbidity and mortality in rabbits. The predominant syndrome is upper respiratory disease. P. multocida can be endemic among rabbit colonies and is often transmitted through nasal secretions. P. multocida can survive several days in water or moist areas.<unk>  can be transmitted through the bite of a dog.<unk>  has also been reported in Red Kangaroos and in potoroos Antibiotic sensitivity P. multocida is highly sensitive to enrofloxacin, oxytetracycline, chloramphinicol, and ampicillin.
