Molecular Survey on Vector-Borne Pathogens in Alpine Wild Carnivorans.
TL;DR: The prevalence of vector-borne pathogens observed in the present study is one of the highest reported so far, suggesting the importance of free-ranging carnivorans in the epidemiology and maintenance of the sylvatic cycle of the pathogens.
Journal ArticleDOI
Piroplasmosis in wildlife: Babesia and Theileria affecting free-ranging ungulates and carnivores in the Italian Alps
Stefania Zanet,Anna Trisciuoglio,Elisa Bottero,Isabel G. Fernández de Mera,Christian Gortázar,Maria Grazia Carpignano,Ezio Ferroglio +6 more
TL;DR: The present study offers novel insights into the role of wildlife in Babesia/Theileria epidemiology, as well as relevant information on genetic variability of piroplasmids infecting wild ungulates and carnivores.
Journal ArticleDOI
An investigation into alternative reservoirs of canine leishmaniasis on the endemic island of Mallorca (Spain).
TL;DR: The role of wild and free-roaming domestic carnivores as a reservoir of Leishmania infantum was investigated on the Mediterranean island of Mallorca, with the first report of infection by L. infantum in the pine marten or any other member of the Mustelidae family.
Journal ArticleDOI
Detection of rat hepatitis E virus in wild Norway rats (Rattus norvegicus) and Black rats (Rattus rattus) from 11 European countries

TL;DR: Investigation shows a broad geographical distribution of ratHEV in Norway and Black rats from Europe and its presence in all settlement types investigated and no difference in infection status was detected related to age, sex, rat species or density of human settlements and zoological gardens.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epidemiology of Leishmania infantum, Toxoplasma gondii, and Neospora caninum in Rattus rattus in absence of domestic reservoir and definitive hosts.
TL;DR: Black rats Rattus rattus was captured and tested by PCR for Leishmania infantum, Toxoplasma gondii and Neospora caninum to test, for these parasites, the existence of a sylvatic cycle independent of reservoir or definitive hosts.
