- Sentinel surveillance is essential for tracking pathogen spread, assessing conservation risks, and evaluating threats to humans, particularly in relation to helminth parasites in hedgehogs.
- In a study of 135 hedgehogs in Mallorca, 11 types of helminth parasites were identified, including an 11.5% prevalence of A. cantonensis, highlighting seasonal patterns in infections linked to the abundance of intermediate hosts like snails.
- The research also uncovered high rates of the lungworm Crenosoma striatum and a first-time detection of Moniliformis saudi in this species, emphasizing the need for ongoing studies to assess the impacts of these parasites on wildlife and public health.
Drainage basin of the Gulf of Lions is largely dominated by vineyards which require the extensive use of Cu fungicides, leading to continuous copper accumulation in surface soils. In this area, soils depict among the highest Cu pollution levels in Europe. In order to draw up a global budget of Cu fluxes to the Gulf of Lions, our approach is based on long-term monitoring of Cu levels in riverine suspended sediments of the Rhone river and coastal Mediterranean river, as well as atmospheric deposits.
