Foot & Mouth ?????

[Lingalong]

So what the heck is Foot&Mouth disease? And if it doesn't affect humans why are people so upset?

[Ginbottle]

cos it causes suffering to animals, rots the hooves & blisters in the mouth. Painful when they can't stand or can't eat. A virus for hooved animals but equal to smallpox in humans.

people are upset because those poor animals are dieing, how would you like it if you had well, lets say, u owned a farm, && tou were VERY close to most of your animals ( ones wich u dont sell ) & they caught foot & mouth disease, how would u like it if u grew up with an animals then it just all of a sudden died, u have to think about these things, even little calves + little cute lambs are either dieing or looseing there parents ( poor things)
