Endotheliotropic Herpesvirus

Elephant Endotheliotropic Herpesvirus is a type of virus, which can cause a highly fatal hemorrhagic disease when transmitted to young Asian elephants which can found in elephants between the ages of 0-9.

The symptom of this disease is the elephant will unable to use the trunk like usual, their tongue and neck are swelling including around the eyes.

The disease can rapidly affect elephant health and Elephants will be sick and die within 2-3 days.
