“…Although these studies are useful for predicting Bd risk and making relevant management strategies, they mostly focus on FN predictors, or only limited PP factors, such as human population density at a continental scale [15]. Earlier studies have postulated that the distribution and abundance of Bd is affected by climate [15,17,19,20], elevation [21], vegetation [22,23], host species richness [22,24], exotic species introductions [25], frog leg trade [26], human movement [27] and the human footprint index [28]. Consequently, it is important to consider these plausible drivers concurrently because, if these factors are looked at independently, it could give the impression that particular factors are driving the distribution of Bd when in fact the causal driver might be another correlated factor.…”
