Summary
"Affected animals are identified at slaughter by their discolored kidneys, justifying the more common designation of 'black kidney disease'. RL is not accompanied by gross renal dysfunction, yet it may cause more insidious deleterious effects, as evidenced by a reduced longevity of affected animals." (Charlier et al., 2008)
