The Release of Non‐Native Gamebirds Is Associated With Amplified Zoonotic Disease Risk
Ecology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 4, April 2025.Spillback is potentially an important mechanism by which non‐natives contribute to zoonotic disease emergence. We capitalise on quasi‐experimental releases of non‐native pheasants (Phasianus colchicus) to compare native pathogen prevalence between sites with similar local conditions but different non‐native densities. Prevalence of Borrelia sp.
