Acquired antibiotic resistance among wild animals: the case of Iberian Lynx (Lynx pardinus)

摘要: The selective pressure generated by the clinical misuse of antibiotics has been major driving force leading to emergence antibiotic resistance among bacteria. Antibiotics or even resistant bacteria are released into environment and contaminate surrounding areas. Human animal populations in contact with these sources able become reservoirs organisms. Then, due convergence between habitats, wild animals other animals, humans, human is now more common this leads an increase exchange determinants their microbiota. Indeed, it seems that wildlife living closer proximity humans have higher levels resistance. Now, Iberian Lynx (Lynx pardinus) a part issue, being suggested as natural reservoir acquired emerging public health concern regarding microbial becoming true: evolving affecting unintentional hosts.
