I noticed one study EACH (already noted) in which Mycobacterium kansasii causes torsion OR
caused lipid pneumonia in 2 separate dogs.
That has been found in a ferret who was thought to have gotten it from the water if memory
serves:

Is a post I carried for someone who was afraid to post it and I also noted:
http://ferrethealth.org/archive/SG17627
The reasons the person was afraid to post (so had the anonymous information provided with
us moderators having all source details) included that the poster was worried about people
who might confuse M. kansasii with its cousins that cause bovine mycobactial disease or
cause TB. It really can take a lot of specialized testing to tell some of the types of
Mycobacteria apart.
I wonder, too, (AND THESE SPECULATIONS ARE NO MORE THAN THIT BECAUSE I AM NOT A
VET AND NOT A PATHOLOGIST) if JL (Juvenile Lymphoma) could cause both findings as an
incredibly rare presentation.
