Domestic and wild animal population movements are important in the spread of disease. There are many recent examples of disease spread that have occurred as a result of intentional movements of livestock or wildlife. Understanding the volume of these movements and the risks associated with them is fundamental in elucidating the epidemiology of these diseases, some of which might entail zoonotic risks. The importance of the worldwide animal trade is reviewed and the role of the unregulated trade in animals is highlighted. A range of key examples are discussed in which animal movements have resulted in the introduction of pathogens to previously disease-free areas. Measures based on heightened surveillance are proposed that mitigate the risks of new pathogen introductions.
家畜和野生动物的种群迁移在疾病传播中至关重要。近期有许多因家畜或野生动物的有意迁移而导致疾病传播的例子。了解这些迁移的规模及其相关风险，对于阐明这些疾病的流行病学至关重要，其中一些疾病可能存在人畜共患病风险。本文回顾了全球动物贸易的重要性，并强调了动物无监管贸易的作用。讨论了一系列关键例子，其中动物迁移导致病原体传入先前无病地区。提出了基于加强监测的措施，以降低新病原体传入的风险。
