A disease is a condition of the body which causes discomfort or dysfunction. A disease can be caused by a body organ becoming faulty due to age, diet, faulty DNA or infection due to bacteria or viruses.

A animal can have a virus and so the animals is diseased. But if another animal is feeding of it then it is parasited. You may call the animal ill but not diseased surely?
