Oak Poisoning in Cattle
( 1981) Bausch, Jerald ; Carson, Thomas ; Iowa State University Digital Repository

Oak poisoning has been recognized for over 300 hundred years. It occurs sporadically in many parts of the world. In the United States, most cases of oak poisoning are seen in the Southwest, Northeast, and Midwest. The leaves, buds, twigs, and acorns of many oak species are toxic, and all of them produce similar clinical signs and lesions when consumed in large enough quantities. Cattle are most often involved clinically, but sheep, horses, goats, rabbits, and quinea pigs are also susceptible.

Canine Narcolepsy
( 1981) Roti, Steven ; Iowa State University Digital Repository

Narcolepsy is a disorder of the central nervous system that is characterized by sudden, recurring attacks of sleep. Although narcolepsy was first described in the human medical literature over ninety years ago, the first case of canine narcolepsy was recognized in 1973. It currently has been reported in several breeds of dogs, in cats, and in horses. It is a well defined neurological condition in human beings, afflicting as many as five to ten people out of every 10,000.
