Learn about the possible environmental health risks posed by Mycobacterium avium paratuberculosis (MAP), a bacterium that causes Johne's (prounced "yo-nees")--an inflammatory disease in the intestines of cattle--and has been shown to cause Crohn's Disease--an inflammatory disease in the intestines of humans. Studies have found that this bacterium is expelled from dairy cattle in milk and can survive common pasteurization then can be sold in dairy products at retail.
