Outbreak Of Plague In South Dakota Leads To Vaccines For Black-footed Ferrets
http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/07/080716115541.htm
>Endangered black-footed ferrets aren't exactly lining up to be stuck with a vaccine, but in an effort to help control an extensive outbreak of plague in South Dakota, some of the ferrets are getting dosed with a vaccine given by biologists. ... The plague is transmitted from animals to humans by bites of infected fleas, but it can be cured with antibiotics if treatment is prompt.

[Moderator's Note: although this is not a domestic ferret article it
does have some interesting health info for a related species and
traffic is low today, so an exception can be made right now.
All replies which do not include health info related to domestic ferret
health will need to be sent directly to the poster instead of to
the list, please, to avoid rejection.]
