| Bovine tuberculosis and the endangered Iberian lynx | |
| 2000 Emerging Infectious Diseases (6): 189-191 | |
We report the first case of bovine tuberculosis in a free-living Iberian lynx (Lynx pardina), an extremely endangered feline, from Do¤ana National Park in Spain. The isolate (Mycobacterium bovis) correlates by molecular characterization with other isolates from wild ungulates in the park, strongly suggesting an epidemiologic link. |
