The CFIA says, the exact number of herds involved and how long the investigation will take is unknown.
The investigation is still in early stages according to the CFIA, and they've begun tracing movements of the animal in the infected herd to try and identify the source and any potential spread of the disease, as well as testing to identify the strain to see if there's a connection to previous cases.
The CFIA says, "During a bovine TB investigation, quarantines and movement restrictions are placed on any implicated animals. Testing humane destruction and disposal are carried out as required."
The CFIA says, the finding should not affect Canada's current bovine TB free status, which supports international trade for Canada's beef industry.
