The European Badger (Meles meles) as a Host for Ticks and Tick‐Borne Pathogens in Peri‐Urban Environments, Hungary

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
European badgers are opportunistic animals that could serve as important hosts in the life cycle of hard ticks (Acari: Ixodidae) when entering peri‐urban and urban environments. In this study, ticks and spleen samples were collected from badgers (Meles meles) found as roadkill between 2020 and 2021 in peri‐urban habitats in Central Europe, Hungary ...

Prevalence and Risk Factor Analysis of Feline Blood‐Borne Pathogens in Bangkok and Vicinities, Thailand

Veterinary Medicine International, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Feline blood‐borne pathogens are important infectious agents of cats that can cause subclinical to severe disease. Awareness of the risks associated with transfusing contaminated blood can reduce morbidity in recipients. Understanding the prevalence and risk factors of these infections is crucial for identifying pathogens that should be screened in ...
