Skin scabies or mange of the fox / by P.J.G. Plummer. : A12-8/6-1936E-PDF
"Scabies, or mange as it is frequently called, is a disease to which practically all species of animals are susceptible. This disease is familiar to many breeders as cattle mange, horse mange, dog mange, etc., and each species of animal is susceptible to more than one form. The majority of fox breeders are already more or less familiar with ear mange of the fox. It is not with this affection but with the more serious disease—skin mange —that this paper deals"--p. [1].
