In Latin America, there are no reports of spontaneous poisoning by Kalanchoe species in animals. This study aimed to describe the epidemiological, clinical, and pathological aspects of an outbreak of poisoning by Kalanchoe blossfeldiana in cattle in the semiarid region of Pernambuco, Brazil. Epidemiological and clinical data were obtained from the owner and veterinarian during technical visits. Prunings of this plant were disposed of in a pasture with a shortness of forage. Seventeen cattle had clinical signs, and thirteen died 4?5 days after the first clinical signs were observed. Clinical signs and gross and histological lesions include gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, and neuromuscular disorders. Kalanchoe spp. contain cardiotoxic glycosides, and the clinical signs and lesions in cattle of this outbreak were consistent with poisoning by plants that contain these toxins.  aENVENENAMIENTO  aGANADO  aCARDIAC GLYCOSIDES  aENVENENAMIENTO DE PLANTAS  aNECROTIC ENTERITIS  aPLANT POISONING  aPLANTAS VENENOSAS  aPLATAFORMA SALUD ANIMAL  aPOISONOUS PLANTS  aSALUD ANIMAL1 aNASCIMENTO , N.C.
