Global trends in infectious diseases at the wildlife–livestock interface [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The role and significance of wildlife–livestock interfaces in disease ecology has largely been neglected, despite recent interest in animals as origins of emerging diseases in humans. Scoping review methods were applied to objectively assess the relative
