“…However, despite having grave implications for agricultural output and global trade, it is unlikely that either LSD or FMD will have a major impact in tiger prey availability. Although cases of LSD have been reported in banteng and gaur (Pruvot et al, 2023), mortality is low in most species (Namazi and Khodakaram Tafti, 2021). Similarly, wildlife mortalities from FMD are relatively uncommon (Gortázar et al, 2021;Ijaz et al, 2022).…”

“…No single agency can address pathogens like ASFV, and the wildlife sector has an important role to enhance our understanding of the virus and its management across tiger range. Existing schemes such as WildHealthNet (Pruvot et al, 2023) that take a One Health approach, integrating animal, public health and environmental bodies provide a template for expansion and adaptation in range countries. These initiatives capitalize on the field presence and ecological awareness of rangers in protected areas for the early detection of cases and connects them with veterinary authorities with the necessary diagnostic capacity and expertise in the safe disposal of carcasses.…”

Disease threats to tigers and their prey

The contraction of the global tiger population over the last 100 years into small, often isolated subpopulations has made them increasingly vulnerable to the impact of disease. Despite this, the health of wild tigers continues to be insufficiently funded and explored. For example, canine distemper virus (CDV), has been associated with localized declines and increased risk of extinction, and yet has received little research attention in most tiger range countries. The emergence of new pathogenic threats has posed fresh challenges, including African swine fever virus (ASFV), which has the potential to devastate wild boar populations, and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV2) with implications for tiger conservation that remain unknown. The objective of this review is to synthesize current research on the health of tigers and their prey that impacts the conservation of tigers in the wild. Published sources are interpreted based on three mechanisms through which disease can affect the viability of tiger populations: (1) by reducing the survival of adult tigers, (2) by reducing breeding productivity, and (3) by reducing the carrying capacity of tiger habitat through decreased prey abundance. Examples of CDV, SARS-CoV2, carnivore protoparvovirus 1 and ASFV are used to illustrate these processes and inform discussion of research and mitigation priorities.

“…SMART is deployed in over 1000 sites across 6 continents, at the front lines of wildlife extraction, land-use change and other anthropogenic encroachment where contacts between wildlife, humans and domestic animals are expanding and increasing. Implementing the WildHealthNet approach in Cambodia, Viet Nam and Lao PDR led to the early detection of threats to livestock and human health (including a significant transnational outbreak of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza) and resulted in the expansion of functional wildlife surveillance systems across the two countries 8. In 2022, the Lao PDR government formally recognised its wildlife surveillance network by adopting a Standard Operating Procedure, and now WildHealthNet is being implemented by partners in countries in Latin America and Africa.…”

The lumpy skin disease is a viral infection in which many nodules are appeared on skin and other parts of body in animals. This virus, lump skin disease virus (LSDV) belongs to capripox virus genus is the main cause of lumpy skin disease (LSD). It is an acute or sub-acute systemic viral disorder of buffalo and cattle. It is recently discovered disease of cattle which is putting a negative impact on economy of dairy industry in Asia. The rounded Nodules on skin is the early symptom of LSD in clinical investigation. The nodules in the mucous membranes of nose and mouth, subcutaneous edema, emaciation, and exaggerated lymphadenopathy are additional clinical symptoms of this disease. Mortality rates is about 3 % in endemic regions of Asia while the morbidity is upto10%. The LSDV is transmitted through the entry of blood from outsource by biting of arthropods including mosquitoes and flies from infected animal to healthy one. To control the dispersal of LSDV, infected animals should be quarantined, restricted its movement and place them in a place of no entry of vectors, arthropods. The recent review investigated new knowledge on several facets of the disorder, including its distribution, transmission, origin, pathophysiology, host vulnerability, diagnosis, preventiand therapeutic approaches. Lumpy skin disease virus belongs to Poxviridae family and genus, Capripoxvirus. It cause acute to fatal infection in cattle. Lumpy skin disease results in loss of weight, infertility, abortion in cows and reduction in milk production. In this way this disease has a serious threat to economy of Middle East, European and African countries due to loss of meat and dairy products. LSD is becoming a global threat mainly in region of Middle East and Europe due to trading patterns and climate change as well. LSDV is spreading from one to another through vectors like flies and insects which bite these infected animal and suck blood from their skin and transfer the causative agent from infected animals to healthy one. There are number of factors upon which the spreading of LSDV depends including, environment, humidity, temperature and regions where vectors of its dispersal are more. This disease is spreading at its high at the end of summer season when there is more humidity in air and autumn. Its control is done by vaccination and quarantine of infected animal to prevent its contact with the healthy animals.
