This book highlights the primary ecological, environmental, social, and economic variables associated with the risk of maintenance, transmission, and dissemination of emerging, re-emerging, and neglected infectious diseases, in which Neotropical vertebrates are involved. It compiles up-to-date knowledge and research for the neotropical region, as well as discusses the current needs of knowledge improvement. The chapters include various examples of the cycles of infectious diseases, all with world-wide relevance where neotropical wild vertebrates are affected or involved. 606 $aApplied ecology 606 $aVeterinary medicine 606 $aVeterinary microbiology 606 $aPublic health 606 $aConservation biology 606 $aEcology 606 $aApplied Ecology 606 $aVeterinary Science 606 $aVeterinary Microbiology 606 $aPublic Health 606 $aConservation Biology 606 $aEcology 615 0$aApplied ecology. 615 0$aVeterinary medicine. 615 0$aVeterinary microbiology. 615 0$aPublic health. 615 0$aConservation biology. 615 0$aEcology. 615 14$aApplied Ecology. 615 24$aVeterinary Science. 615 24$aVeterinary Microbiology. 615 24$aPublic Health. 615 24$aConservation Biology. 615 24$aEcology. 676 $a333.95416 702 $aAcosta-Jamett$b Gerardo 702 $aChaves$b Andrea 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910842490303321 996 $aEcology of Wildlife Diseases in the Neotropics$94247460 997 $aUNINA
