and agricultural practices is considered the major factor responsible for the emergence and …

Wild deer can feature in the epidemiology of a wide range of livestock and human diseases
in the United Kingdom by representing a source of disease via various transmission routes …

Wild ungulate populations are increasing in Europe and Italy, with a consequent increase in

Wild rodents can be carriers of antimicrobial resistant Escherichia coli. As rodents are known
to be involved in the transmission of bacteria of human and animal health concern, they …

Antibiotic resistance is an emerging global problem. Wild animals are rarely exposed to
antibiotics and therefore low levels of antibiotic resistance are expected. However, the …
