Ind. euthanizes 15 cattle with bovine tuberculosis
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — State animal health officials say 15 beef cattle have been euthanized in southeastern Indiana after testing positive for bovine tuberculosis.
The State Board of Animal Health said Friday it recently completed its bovine tuberculosis testing campaign for all livestock herds linked to a herd in Dearborn County where one cow was found during slaughter in December to have the disease.
That cow was Indiana's first such case of the disease in more than three decades. Tuberculosis causes severe coughing, fatigue, emaciation and debilitation in cattle.
All 15 of the cattle that tested positive for tuberculosis were associated with the herd the infected cow came from.

Cattle Outlook: 2012 red meat production to be lowest since 2009
The average price of choice beef at retail during August was $4.872 per pound, up 9.1 cents from the month before, up 49.8 cents from August 2010, and tied with the record set in May. Pork prices also were record high during August. Unsurprisingly, the Consumer Price Index for food was also record high in August.
