Brucellosis in Marine Mammals: Meta‐Analysis of Prevalence, Infection Patterns, Host Specificity and Zoonotic Potential

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 5, September 2025.
Marine brucellosis shows high prevalence in cetaceans (52%), followed by other marine mammals (30%) and pinnipeds (18%), indicating species‐specific susceptibility. These findings highlight the need for targeted surveillance and diagnostic strategies to mitigate ecological and zoonotic risks.

Why are our roe deer short of breath? – prevalence and promotive factors of lung parasites in roe deer Capreolus capreolus in south‐eastern Germany

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2025, Issue 5, September 2025.
The existence of bronchopulmonary nematodes in German roe deer Capreolus capreolus is well documented, with two types of lung parasites that have been described previously: Dictyocaulus capreolus and Varestrongylus capreoli. However, little is known about the impact of these parasites on their host animal or which parameters influence outbreak and ...

Angiostrongylus cantonensis Meningo‐Encephalitis in Children—Heightened Awareness Needed During Prolonged Wet Weather Conditions

Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 472-481, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Angiostrongylus cantonensis, the leading cause of eosinophilic meningoencephalitis, is well established in eastern Australia. Prolonged wet weather in Queensland during 2021–2022 coincided with anecdotal reports of increased neuroangiostrongyliasis cases, prompting an evaluation of paediatric cases from 2013 to 2022.

Gastrointestinal Parasites of Zoonotic Importance Detected in Bats in the Conservation Area of Semuliki National Park, Western Uganda

Journal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Bat guano may contain zoonotic parasites that contaminate the environment and/or serve as a potential source of infection to humans and animals. Repeated bat–human exposure could be a risk factor for zoonosis. To date, knowledge on the status of bat gastrointestinal parasites (GIPs) in Uganda is limited.
