We report the first case of bovine tuberculosis in a free-living Iberian lynx (Lynx pardina), an extremely endangered feline, from Doñana National Park in Spain. The isolate (Mycobacterium bovis) correlates by molecular characterization with other isolates from wild ungulates in the park, strongly suggesting an epidemiologic link. Mycobacterium bovis infects many animal species, with wild and free-ranging domestic ungulates being the main reservoirs in nature (1).
我们报告了首例在西班牙多尼亚纳国家公园一只自由生活的伊比利亚猞猁(Lynx pardina)身上发现牛结核病的病例,伊比利亚猞猁是一种极度濒危的猫科动物。通过分子特征分析,该分离株(牛分枝杆菌)与公园内野生有蹄类动物的其他分离株相关,这有力地表明了存在流行病学联系。牛分枝杆菌可感染许多动物物种,野生和自由放养的家养有蹄类动物是自然界中的主要宿主(1)。
