Transmissible spongiform encephalopathies exotic to North America (BSE and associated diseases) are unlikely to be introduced or to persist should they be introduced into the United States [2]. Domestic TSEs (scrapie, CWD, and TME) seem to be relatively restricted in their host range, and none of these diseases is known to naturally cause disease in cattle. It is important that surveillance for TSEs continues, however, particularly in cattle because of the extreme consequences to the livestock industries, and potentially, public health, if BSE becomes established. Because the TSEs have implications beyond effects on their natural host species, adequate surveillance, control, and even eradication of these diseases should be goals for the livestock industries, wildlife managers, and animal health agencies in the United States.
