Listeriosis is a bacterial infection caused by Listeria monocytogenes. While many bacteria generally infect specific locations within the human body, Listeria may infect many different sites, such as the brain or spinal cord membranes or the bloodstream.
Most infections are caused by ingestion of the bacteria, although inhalation or direct contact with the bacteria can also cause infection. Cattle affected with Listeriosis can die within 3 days of infection. In most cases, the cattle will live from 4 to 14 days.
