What's the difference between rinderpest and swine?
Rinderpest
Definition:
(n.) A highly contagious distemper or murrain, affecting neat cattle, and less commonly sheep and goats; -- called also cattle plague, Russian cattle plague, and steppe murrain.
Example Sentences:

(20) The group also includes two other serious animal diseases, rinderpest or cattle plague and peste des petits ruminants in sheep and goats.
Swine
Definition:
(n.) Any animal of the hog kind, especially one of the domestical species. Swine secrete a large amount of subcutaneous fat, which, when extracted, is known as lard. The male is specifically called boar, the female, sow, and the young, pig. See Hog.
Example Sentences:
(1) The Department of Herd Health and Ambulatory Clinic of the Veterinary Faculty (State University of Utrecht, The Netherlands) has developed the VAMPP package for swine breeding farms.
(2) After Western blot, 2 of the 5 protein bands of swine-cag (27 and 57 kD) and 3 of the 8 protein bands of human cag (27, 32, and 57 kD) reacted with the anti-Toxoplasma antibody used in the ELISA.

(6) These swine were compared to four groups fed the medicated diet to determine the effect of duration of treatment and degree of animal isolation on the persistence of resistance in lactose-fermenting enteric organisms.
(7) Report on the results of serological studies on the species Leptospira interrogans in cattle (19,607), swine (6,348), dogs (182) and horses (88) from the Netherlands during the period from 1969 to 1974.
(8) A glycosylated protein was essential for activity in bovine cells, but not in swine cells.
(9) The staining method consisted of sequential treatment of slides with crest serum, fluorosceinated goat-antihuman and swine-antigoat antibodies, and propidium iodide.
(10) The results do not favour the possibility that transient motor reactions exhibited by swine during pre-slaughter CO2-exposure are manifestations of emotional stress.
