Utilizing hunter harvest effort to survey for wildlife disease: A case study of West Nile virus in greater sage‐grouse

Creator:: Dusek, Robert J., Hagen, Christian A., Franson, J. Christian, Budeau, David A., and Hofmeister, Erik K.
Abstract:: Greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus; sage-grouse) are highly susceptible to infection with West Nile virus (WNV), with substantial mortality reported in wild populations and in experimentally infected birds. Although sage-grouse are hunted throughout much of their range, they have also recently been considered for protection under the Endangered Species Act. We...

An Observation of Clostridium perfringens in Greater Sage-Grouse

Creator:: Hagen, Christian A. and Bildfell, Robert J.
Abstract:: Mortality due to infectious diseases is seldom reported in the Greater Sage-Grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus). A case of necrotic enteritis associated with Clostridium perfringens type A is described in a free-ranging adult male sage-grouse in eastern Oregon. Clostridial enteritis is known to cause outbreaks of mortality in various domestic and wild...

Fatal Paralytic Shellfish Poisoning in Kittlitz’s Murrelet (Brachyramphus brevirostris) Nestlings, Alaska, USA

Creator:: Shearn-Bochsler, Valerie, Lance, Ellen W., Corcoran, Robin, Piatt, John, Bodenstein, Barbara, Frame, Elizabeth, and Lawonn, James
Abstract:: Paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP) is an acute toxic illness in humans resulting from ingestion of shellfish contaminated with a suite of neurotoxins (saxitoxins) produced by marine dinoflagellates, most commonly in the genus Alexandrium. Poisoning also has been sporadically suspected and, less often, documented in marine wildlife, often in association with...

Trichinella Surveillance in Black Bears (Ursus Americanus) from Oregon, USA

Creator:: Mortenson, J. A., Kent, M. L., Fowler, D. R., Chomel, B. B., and Immell, D. A.
Abstract:: We used serology and muscle digestion to test black bears (Ursus americanus) from western Oregon, USA, for Trichinella. Results indicate black bears in Oregon are not part of a sylvatic cycle for Trichinella, and risk of human exposure to Trichinella larvae from eating black bear meat from Oregon appears low.

Ketamine and Midazolam Anesthesia in Pacific Martens (Martes caurina)

Creator:: Mortenson, Jack A. and Moriarty, Katie M.
Abstract:: The use of midazolam as a tranquilizer for anesthesia in mustelids in conjunction with the cyclohexamine ketamine is not well documented. Because midazolam is fast acting, inexpensive, and quickly metabolized, it may serve as a good alternative to other more commonly used tranquilizers. We trapped and anesthetized 27 Pacific martens...

Evaluation of the Sensitivity and Specificity of an Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay for Diagnosing Brucellosis in African Buffalo (Syncerus caffer)

Creator:: Gorsich, Erin E., Bengis, Roy G., Ezenwa, Vanessa O., and Jolles, Anna E.
Abstract:: Brucellosis is a disease of veterinary and public health importance worldwide. In sub- Saharan Africa, where this disease has been detected in several free-ranging wildlife species, successful disease control may be dependent on accurate detection in wildlife reservoirs, including African buffalo (Syncerus caffer). This study estimates the sensitivity and specificity...

Identification of Novel Gammaherpesviruses in Ocelots (Leopardus pardalis) and Bobcats (Lynx rufus) in Panama and Colorado, USA

Creator:: Lozano, Caitlin C., Sweanor, Linda L., Wilson-Henjum, Grete, Kays, Roland W., Moreno, Ricardo, VandeWoude, Sue, and Troyer, Ryan M.
Abstract:: Gammaherpesviruses (GHVs) have been identified in many species and are often associated with disease. Recently, we characterized three novel felid GHVs in domestic cats, bobcats, and pumas. In this study we sought to determine whether free ranging ocelots (Leopardus pardalis) and bobcats (Lynx rufus) are infected with additional GHVs. We...

Snake Trafficking: An International Crisis

Creator:: St. John, Alyssa
Abstract:: Wildlife trafficking, specifically snake trafficking, has been an issue that affects endangered snake species and newly discovered snake species mainly due to inadequate habitat and invasive species. For example, burmese pythons in Florida are a nonnative snake that compete with the native snakes as a result of accidental release into...
