Actinobacillosis is a zoonotic disease caused by Actinobacillus. It is more commonly associated with animals than with humans.
One of the most common forms seen by veterinarians is mouth actinobacillosis of cattle, due to Actinobacillus lignieresii. The most prominent symptom is the swelling of the tongue that protrudes from the mouth and is very hard at palpation ("wooden tongue").
