Mycobacterium avium Subspecies paratuberculosis in Asymptomatic Zoo Herbivores in Poland. [PDF]
Mycobacterial infections are significant issues in zoo animals, influencing animal welfare, conservation efforts, and the zoonotic potential of pathogens. Although tuberculosis is recognised to be highly dangerous, paratuberculosis can also lead to animal losses and is potentially dangerous for humans.
