[QUOTE="matthew, post: 446103, member: 169"] For the pedants: Up to 300,000 cfu (colony forming units of bacteria) can be in just 1ml of urine, if coming from a badger with kidney lesions. Badgers so infected wander and urinate indiscriminately in trails, voiding up to 30ml at each squirt. And just 1 cfu is needed to provoke zTB in a calf. 70 cfu in an adult bovine who sniffs it.
