In the One Health context, Integrated Wildlife Monitoring (IWM) merges wildlife health monitoring (WHM) and host community to early detect emerging infections, record changes in disease dynamics, assess impact of interventions complex multi-host multi-pathogen networks. This study reports deployment results obtained from a nationwide IWM pilot test eleven sites representing habitat diversity mainland Spain. each site, camera-trap networks sampling indicator species for antibody biomarker...
Epizootic hemorrhagic disease (EHD) virus serotype 8 (EHDV-8) emerged in Spain autumn 2022. In this study, we aimed to (1) characterize the clinical and lesional presentation of EHDV infection European red deer (Cervus elaphus), (2) study spatial spread wild ruminants after its introduction, 2022/2023. We confirmed two clinically compatible sick by PCR detection anti-EHDV specific antibodies. occurred with hyperacute acute signs lesions associated vascular changes leading death animals....
In dry climates, livestock farming contributes to waterhole creation and maintenance, thereby contributing biodiversity conservation. However, these lentic water bodies also represent a critical environmental connection between microorganisms their vertebrate hosts since the can facilitate pathogen persistence transmission. Therefore, interventions for tuberculosis (TB) risk mitigation at wildlife-livestock interface often focus on segregating host species points. We hypothesized that...
Abstract Baits are a means of orally delivering toxicants, medicaments, or chemical markers to wild boar and feral pigs ( Sus scrofa ). We tested three bait types, the paraffin-feed-sugar-based IREC (green colorant-free versions), puffed leguminous with same flavoring as (Flavor), plain without (Plain). were deployed in fenced hunting estate year-round feeding assess type preference study effect coloring, pre-feeding, baiting device, habituation on consumption selectivity. under heavy pavel...

<title>Abstract</title> Despite enormous efforts, complete animal tuberculosis (TB) eradication has only been achieved in few regions. Epidemiological analyses are key to identify TB risk factors and set up targeted biosecurity measures. Here, we conducted an in-depth characterization of 84 extensive beef cattle farms from a high prevalence region Western Spain, assessed how farm management wildlife presence on contribute risk. Twenty-six out variables were associated with positivity. Farm...
Oral vaccination is one of the most effective interventions for disease control in wildlife. As a result recent global reemergence African swine fever and ongoing classical animal tuberculosis, oral Eurasian wild boar (Sus scrofa) receives increased interest. Several baits feral pigs have been described, but developing more stable personalized formulations important. This paper proposes new bait formulation primarily composed corn flour, piglet feed, sugar, honey as binder to obtain improved...

Outdoor farming contributes to biodiversity conservation and enhances animal welfare, but also raises biosafety concerns due livestock contact with potentially infected wildlife. Thus, there is a need assess the balance between vertebrate species richness on farms, visits by wildlife posing risk, pathogen circulation in open-air systems. We explored these links pilot study involving 15 hoofstock farms (6 cattle, 5 small ruminant, 4 pig farms), where we conducted interviews risk point...
