The symptoms are rhinitis, otitis media, conjunctivitis, inflammation of reproductive organs and local subcutaneous abscess. Rabbits with rhinitis have serous or white mucus purulent secretions from their nostrils, which are mixed with food crumbs and rabbit hair to form scabs to block their nostrils and make it difficult to breathe. The head and neck of rabbits suffering from otitis media are tilted to one side, and the rabbits will die after being stimulated and rolled in circles for several months. Conjunctivitis cases often occur in young and adult rabbits, with swollen eyelids, flushing conjunctiva and purulent secretions. In severe cases, secretions stick to the hair around the eyes into scab, which can lead to blindness. The inflammation of reproductive organs is mainly transmitted by diseased rabbits during mating, male rabbits suffer from orchitis, female rabbits suffer from uterine inflammation, losing breeding value.
