An outbreak of vesicular stomatitis which occurred in a dairy herd in southwestern Idaho in 1982 was investigated. The virus spread in the herd despite the lack of insect vectors, and the vesicular stomatitis virus was isolated from saliva-contaminated water sources. Approximately 320 of 500 cows were affected, and the total estimated loss was approximately $50 000.
