The majority of wild foods consumed by humans are sourced from intensively managed or semi-farmed populations. Management practices inevitably affect wildlife density and habitat characteristics, which are key elements in the transmission of parasites. We consider the risk of transmission of foodborne parasites to humans from wildlife maintained under natural or semi-natural conditions. A deeper understanding will be useful in counteracting foodborne parasites arising from the growing industry of novel and exotic foods.
人类食用的大多数野生食物都来自集约化管理或半养殖的种群。管理措施不可避免地会影响野生动物密度和栖息地特征,而这些是寄生虫传播的关键因素。我们考虑了在自然或半自然条件下饲养的野生动物将食源性寄生虫传播给人类的风险。更深入的了解将有助于应对新兴的新奇和外来食品行业所产生的食源性寄生虫问题。
