Drivers of bat researchers’ intent to adopt field hygiene practices

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Infectious disease is a growing threat to wildlife, with zoonotic transmission most likely at the human–wildlife interface. One underappreciated activity at this interface is fieldwork with wild animals, but associated risks can be mitigated through field hygiene (FH) practices, such as using personal protective equipment and other appropriate
