Abstract:Wildlife parasite communities are important for an OneHealth approach.
The external environment impacts host-associated communities directly
and via the hosts. Hosts in poor body condition are more susceptible to
infection and parasite mode of transmission will affect occurrence:
rural environments with better availability of intermediate hosts favour
trophic transmission, while urban environments, often with dense host
populations, favour direct transmission. We here study helminth
communities within their sy… Show more
