From the “Illustrated Manual for the Recognition and Diagnosis of Certain Animal Diseases”, published in 1982, by the Mexico-United States Commission for the Prevention of Foot and Mouth Disease, captured during a swine's necropsy, this photograph depicts the pathologic appearance of a pig's heart, affected by a case of acute African swine fever (ASF). The pericardial sac had been cut, revealing its fluid filled interior, and the hemorrhagic appearance of the myocardium.
