Ticks From Mink and Their Associated Microorganisms in Spain. [PDF]

open access: yesTransbound Emerg Dis
Wildlife is an important source of emerging zoonotic agents, including tick‐borne ones. Wild carnivores such as mink are commonly parasitized by ticks, which are vectors and reservoirs of zoonotic diseases. Besides the importance of these arthropods as potential sources of diseases in mink, and the role of these mammals as reservoirs of infectious ...
