Not sure I spelled it right but, I thought you'd know what I was talking about. I found one of my very best Reg. Black Angus cows( a Bando 598 Dauther) DOB- 1/14/07 dead on Labor Day. :( I'd just seen them a few days before and she was fine. Good condition bawling for feed etc. Can anyone tell me what they have seen with cases of Anaplais meaning symptoms, behavior, Treatment etc. This is the only picture I could find of her it's from the spring of 2014. She looked just like this the last time I saw her alive. :( B&G
 
Ugh. Horrible feeling. I don't know - there are soooooo many reasons a cow ends up dead. It seems to me you might have seen some lethargy or something from anaplas before death. What makes you suspect?
 
We've only had one cow with anaplasmosis. She was a little off from the herd, looked like she was losing condition and drooling - something just wasn't right. Checked her gums & vulva - they were both not quite white but not a healthy pink. Took her to the vet and he confirmed our suspicions, treated with LA300. We caught it early (still sold her) but from what I understand, their behavior changes and usually become flighty &/or aggressive in advanced cases before they die.

I had one with everything TCRanch mentioned. She would still come to feed with the rest but she would drag her head the whole time and had a sort of stagger in her walk. It took three rounds of la300 and b12 to get her back in shape.

Anaplasmosis that I have seen have all been jaundiced with pale mucous membranes. There is no red water as occurs in other tick fever organisms such as Babesia. Diagnosis is from a stained capillary blood smear such as from the tip of the tail.

While examination of a stained blood smear from a clinically affected animal - or a splenic impression smear from a reasonably freshly dead one - is conclusively diagnostic, the cELISA test which is now used throughout the USA will detect 1)clinically-affected animals, 2)animals in the incubation phase 3 weeks or longer after initial infection, as well as 3)persistently-infected 'carrier' animals - but unfortunately, will not differentiate between those carriers(which serve as a potential source of infection, but will not become clinically-affected) and those incubating the disease which WILL likely become clinical cases within 3-6 weeks or so.
