Pathogens, 2023 Neuroangiostrongyliasis (NAS) is an emerging tropical disease in humans and some animals which is caused by infection with the parasitic nematode Angiostrongylus cantonensis. It is the leading cause of eosinophilic meningitis worldwide.

, 2021 The introduction of non-native species and deforestation are both important drivers of environmental change that can also facilitate the geographic spread of zoonotic pathogens and increase disease risk in humans. With ongoing trends in globalization and

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 6, November 2026.This research shows high gastrointestinal parasitic infections in the endangered Himalayan musk deer, indicating a significant risk of cross‐transmission from sympatric livestock (chauri and horses). Moreover, distinct host‐specific parasite dominance and habitat‐dependent infection patterns accentuate the need for minimising livestock‐wildlife contact

A Review of Rat Lungworm Infection and Recent Data on Its Definitive Hosts in Hawai‘i [PDF]
, 2018 Rat lungworm (Angiostrongylus cantonensis) is a zoonotic nematode that causes rat lungworm disease (angiostrongyliasis), a potentially debilitating form of meningitis, in humans worldwide.

Sociability Under Anthropogenic Change: From Individual Behaviour to Population‐Level Consequences
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.Our review synthesises empirical and theoretical research on how anthropogenic environmental change reshapes animal social behaviour from individuals to populations. We use sociability as an individual‐level lens, distinguishing context‐dependent expression from repeatable interindividual differences and linking both to social relationships, network ...

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 10, October 2026.Abstract The global amphibian extinction crisis results from many threats, including anthropogenic climate change, modified fire regimes, and disease. Identifying the effects of these processes is crucial for frog conservation, especially in regions where species experience ongoing prescribed fire and chytridiomycosis.

Coinfections Dampen the Effects of Temperature on Host–Parasite Interactions
Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 10, October 2026.Temperature can drive large shifts in host–parasite interactions, but these shifts need not correspond to strong effects on coinfecting parasite interactions. Coinfection may provide a stabilizing effect on disease in a warming world—but this effect can falter when hosts are faced with multiple stressors.
