The Oregon Department of Agriculture says it was previously detected in wild rabbit populations in Central and Eastern Oregon. Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease is not a threat to people. It quickly kills rabbits. The virus was found in a privately owned colony of rabbits. It was first spotted by a veterinarian who contacted the Department of Agriculture. Most of the colony has died. The remaining rabbits are quarantined.
