Abstract:
Invasive wild mammals are present in all continents, with Europe, North America, and the Asian-Pacific region having the largest number of established species. In particular, Europe has been the continent with the highest number of zoonotic parasites associated with invasive wild mammals. These invasive species may represent a major threat for the conservation of native ecosystems and may enter in the transmission cycle of native parasites, or act as spreaders of exotic parasites. Here, we review the role of invasive wild mammals as spreaders of zoonotic parasites, presenting important examples from Europe, America, and the Asia-Pacific region. Finally, we emphasize the need for more research on these mammals and their parasites, especially in areas where their monitoring is scantily performed.
摘要:
入侵的野生哺乳动物存在于所有大陆,与欧洲,北美,和亚太地区拥有最多的已建立物种。特别是,欧洲一直是与入侵野生哺乳动物相关的人畜共患寄生虫数量最多的大陆。这些入侵物种可能是保护本地生态系统的主要威胁,并可能进入本地寄生虫的传播周期,或者充当外来寄生虫的传播者。这里,我们回顾了入侵野生哺乳动物作为人畜共患寄生虫传播者的作用,展示了来自欧洲的重要例子,美国,和亚太地区。最后,我们强调需要对这些哺乳动物及其寄生虫进行更多的研究,特别是在他们监测很少的地区。
