Two horses in Colorado have tested positive for equine infectious anemia.
They were identified earlier this month in the Denver area, and both animals were euthanized. One case was attributed to an outbreak at a veterinary clinic in Texas last year, where the disease spread from improper hygiene.
Equine infectious anemia can be found around the globe, with only Japan and Iceland considered disease-free.
