Abstract:
Two female budgerigars with kidney tumours are described. They both had a history of gradual emaciation. One bird also had abdominal distention and a paralysed left leg. Histologically, the tumours appeared to be adenocarcinomas. The occurrence and histological appearance of kidney tumours in budgerigars are compared to findings of other authors.

Rous Sarcoma Virus (RSV) and Cancer
Rous Sarcoma virus or RSV was discovered by F. Peyton Rous in the year 1911 as a filterable transmissible agent that could cause tumors in chickens. He won a Nobel Prize for this discovery in 1966. His experiments clearly demonstrated that some cancers could be caused by infectious agents and led to the discovery of many more cancer-causing viruses in animals as well as humans.
