[2022/02/23, 09:18:05] Mathew Mutinda Ndunda: [2022/02/23, 09:21:11] Mathew Mutinda Ndunda: I saw this in an old buffalo - could it be wooden tongue Actinobacillosis? Actinobacillus lignieresii? Has any one see this before and did you confirm your diagnosis? [2022/02/23, 09:31:11] Gerhard Steenkamp: You might also have to consider a jaw fracture with cranial nerve V damage. Any history? [2022/02/23, 09:33:35] Gary Bauer: Hi Mathew. I have seen wooden tongue in buffalo (2 young bulls). They did not present with a protruding tongue as in your pictures and I kind of agree with Gerhard to lean more towards an innervation deficit. Please keep us informed of your findings. [2022/02/23, 09:34:09] Mathew Mutinda Ndunda: Hi Gerhard, no history – it’s a wild lone male. I am considering my options and samples to take to lab and if appropriate to euthanize? [2022/02/23, 09:34:11] Marius: That can also be a mass sitting there, very possible neoplasia. [2022/02/23, 09:35:40] Gary Bauer: Or bone stuck there 🤔🤔 [2022/02/23, 11:07:01] Roy Bengis: What about botulism??
