Prevalence and antimicrobial resistance of <em>Salmonella</em> and <em>Yersinia</em> in the feces of hunted wildlife in Abeokuta, Nigeria

Abstract: Meat from wildlife contributes significantly to food security and income generation in many African communities. Salmonellae and yersiniae are important causes of foodborne infections. This study investigated the presence and antimicrobial resistance of salmonellae and yersiniae in the fecal contents of hunted wild rodents and ruminants at a wildlife meat-processing center in Abeokuta, Nigeria. Bacteria were isolated and identified by selective culture methods and biochemical characterization. Antimicrobial su… Show more

“…For example, in Bovidae the estimated prevalence of Coxiella burnetii (the causative agent of Q fever) was 1% [33], while Salmonella spp. were detected in 6% of samples [34,35]. Three references provided evidence of human exposure to bacteria through direct The color gradient represents the number of studies which were either conducted in or obtained samples from those countries (key provided).…”
