Bien que l'origine de l'ESB chez les bovins ne soit toujours pas confirmée, l'épizootie au Royaume-Uni semble être attribuable à l'alimentation de ces animaux avec de la farine de viande et d'os (protéines de ruminants obtenues lors de l'équarrissage) contenant des tissus d'animaux atteints d'ESB depuis les années 70. 2, record 1, French, - enc%C3%A9phalopathie%20spongiforme%20bovine
