The liver dystrophy of the European Brown Hare is widely distributed in Europe and predominantly called European Brown Hare Syndrome (EBHS) or Hemorrhagic Septicemia Syndrome. The disease could be reproduced by injection of sterile filtered organ material of two field cases in two hares held in captivity. The clinical symptoms and the pathologic alterations are described.
