Across Africa, wild giraffes suffer from a variety of skin disorders of mostly unknown etiology. With their populations already threatened from anthropogenic factors, it is important to understand infectious disease risks to giraffes. Here we describe filarid parasites and a portion of their genetic sequence associated with skin disease in Rothschild's giraffes () in Uganda.
在非洲各地，野生长颈鹿患有多种皮肤疾病，其病因大多未知。由于长颈鹿的数量已经受到人为因素的威胁，因此了解它们感染疾病的风险非常重要。在这里，我们描述了在乌干达的罗氏长颈鹿（）中与皮肤疾病相关的丝状寄生虫及其部分遗传序列。
