1988年和1989年，北海有数千只斑海豹（Phoca vitulina）死于海豹犬瘟热感染。研究人员将在福辛瘟热流行期间在德意志联邦共和国石勒苏益格-荷尔斯泰因州北海海岸发现的 40 只斑海豹的甲状腺形态与在冰岛采集的 5 只健康斑海豹的甲状腺形态进行了比较。还对 1990 年在北海海岸线发现的七只港湾鼠海豚 (Phocoena phocoena) 的甲状腺进行了评估。在动物流行期间死亡的斑海豹的甲状腺中发现了胶体消耗和纤维化，但在冰岛的动物中却没有发现。与北海海豹相比，鼠海豚的甲状腺也出现了类似的病变，但程度较轻。
In 1988 and 1989, thousands of harbor seals (Phoca vitulina) died in the North Sea from phocine distemper infection. The morphology of thyroid glands from 40 harbor seals found dead on the North Sea coastlines of Schleswig-Holstein, Federal Republic of Germany, during an epizootic of phocine distemper, was compared with the morphology of thyroid glands from five healthy harbor seals collected in Iceland. Thyroid glands from seven harbor porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) found dead in 1990 on the North Sea coastlines also were evaluated. Colloid depletion and fibrosis were found in the thyroid glands of harbor seals which died during the epizootic, but not in animals from Iceland. Thyroid glands of the porpoises showed similar lesions, but to a lesser degree, than those observed in the North Sea seals.
