From January 1, 1977 through December 31, 1978, 529,077 calves were slaughtered at a Wisconsin abattoir. Tissues from 36 calves found unfit for human consumption because of suspected neoplasia were examined histologically, and 19 lymphomas, seven mesotheliomas, one embryonal nephroma, one fibroma and one hemangiosarcoma were found.
