What reading level is Avian Botulism book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Development of these spores requires complete absence of oxygen, temperatures ranging from 60 to' 97 F, a source of animal protein, and a pH ranging from 5. 7 to 8. 0.
LO Limber-neck occurs at an advanced stage of botulism poisoning.
The Botulism Cycle Favorable environmental conditions occur in the tissues of decaying animal and insect car- casses. The decomposition process uses up all available oxygen in the carcass, creating anaerobic conditions. Bacterial spores ingested during the life of
...the animal germinate after death. As the bacteria multiply and die, toxin is released.
Outbreaks of avian botulism occur when the toxin is taken in by birds. The die-off may begin as birds feed directly on invertebrate carcasses that contain the toxin, or as a result of feeding on live maggots of flesh-flies and blowflies. Flies lay their eggs on dead vertebrates, and the resulting maggots store botulinal toxin in their bodies as they consume the carcass. More than 5, 000 maggots can be produced by a single bird carcass; consump- tion of just two to five toxin-bearing maggots is often enough to kill a duck!
