Is more dangerous to go to the zoo or to parks in Brno? Detection of infectious agents of selected zoonotic diseases
Original language description
Wildlife animals and ticks play an important role in maintaining and spreading zoonoses in nature but also in captive animals. The aim of this study was to find out and compare prevalence of Rickettsia sp. and Anaplasma phagocytophilum in ticks in ZOO Brno and in surrounding area during years 2014-2018. In total, 166 and 390 ticks were collected in ZOO Brno and in surrounding area (parks in Bystrc and Pisárky), respectively. Pathogens were detected by PCR. In ZOO Brno, Rickettsia sp. was detected in four (5.7%) samples and A. phagocytophilum in one (1.4%) sample. In surrounding area, Rickettsia sp. was detected in 23 (20%) samples and A. phagocytophilum in four (3.5%) samples. In addition, B. burgdorferi s.l. was detected in 11 (15.7%) samples from ZOO Brno. The results of our study show that there is the higher risk of transmission of zoonotic infections in surrounding areas compared to the ZOO Brno.
