With urbanization, people live in close proximity to their pets. People often share their living quarters and furniture, and this proximity carries a new potential for pathogen transmission. In addition to the change in lifestyle with our pets, new exotic pets are being introduced to the pet industry regularly. Often, we are unfamiliar with specific clinical signs of diseases in these new exotic pets or the routes of transmission of pathogens for the particular species. This article reviews zoonoses that occur naturally in ferrets, hedgehogs, and sugar gliders, discussing the occurrence and clinical symptoms of these diseases in humans.
随着城市化进程,人们与宠物生活得很近。人们常常共享生活空间和家具,这种近距离接触带来了新的病原体传播可能性。除了与宠物生活方式的改变外,新的外来宠物也经常被引入宠物行业。通常,我们对这些新的外来宠物疾病的特定临床症状或特定物种病原体的传播途径并不熟悉。本文综述了水貂、刺猬和蜜袋鼯自然发生的人畜共患病,讨论了这些疾病在人类中的发生情况和临床症状。
