These recommendations were developed to minimize the risk of SARS-CoV-2 transmission from people to free-ranging, wild mammals. Specifically, these recommendations are for people engaged in wildlife work in the field, either in direct contact (e.g. handling) or indirect contact (e.g. within 2 meters or in a confined space) with free-ranging wild mammals, or working in situations in which free-ranging wild mammals may come in contact with surfaces or materials contaminated by infected personnel.
In the wildlife health field, parasites are usually seen as detrimental organisms, but many actually perform important ecological functions. This special issue explores the emerging frontier of parasite conservation. Which parasite species are at greatest extinction risk and why? Which parasite species perform important ecological functions, and which should be targeted for conservation? How and when should we act to conserve parasite biodiversity?
