Résumé : High mortality has been reported in neonatal camel calves (3). In East Africa a morbidity of 30% bas been recorded (4) with nearly 100% mortality if there is no immediate veterinary intervention, which is often the case given the inaccessible areas where camels are kept. While neonatal diarrhea caused by Escherichia coli has been repeatedly described in the camel (5), there is no report on sepficemic E. coli infections in camel calves.
