text: While the origin and development of BSE is still being researched, it is believed that classical BSE occurred after dietary intake by cattle of mammalian protein feed made with BSE infected animal tissues (such as meat-and-bone meal) and reached epidemic proportions in the late 1980’s and early 1990, with over 185,00 confirmed cases in cattle worldwide (more than 95% in the UK).
