MONSALVE B, Santiago; MATTAR V, Salim y GONZALEZ T, Marco. ZOONOTIC TRANSMITTED BY WILD ANIMALS AND ITS IMPACT ON EMERGING AND RE-EMERGING DISEASES. Rev.MVZ Cordoba [online]. 2009, vol.14, n.2, pp.1762-1773. ISSN 0122-0268.
Emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases originated in wild life animals can be transmitted to human population either by direct contact or by vectors. Zoonosis are of big social and epidemiological concern. The arising of emerging infectious diseases is linked to loss of biodiversity by anthropogenic factors due to destruction of natural habitats, fauna and flora smuggling and the loss of genetic diversity. All this aspects play a role in the arising of reemerging infectious diseases. This review approaches to the knolewdge of zoonosis transmitted by wild animals to human beings and the impact of these conditions in the epidemiology of emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases.
