a hoof-and-mouth outbreak in and around Stanislaus National Forest led to the slaughter of 22,214 deer, 3,400 cattle and 3,000 sheep between 1924 and 1926. . . “It turned out that the deer didn’t have hoof-and-mouth disease,” Swauger said. “What they had was adenovirus disease, which is endemic to California herds and has no cure.”
