In the period from November 2004 to March 2005 the prevalence of gastro-intestinal nematodes of 165 foxes (Vulpes vulpes L.) from the Pomerania region was examined. These parasites were found in 66.1% of examined foxes. Toxocara canis was the most frequent parasite and was observed in 33.9% of examined animals. Toxascaris leonina was found in 1.2%, Uncinaria stenocephala in 25.5%, Ancylostoma caninum in 6.7 and Trichuris vulpis in 10.3% of the examined foxes.

Florida is home to a vast number of wildlife species that come into close contact with residents and domestic animals. As mammals are competent hosts for many zoonotic diseases, it is important to understand what exposure risks are present for both people and animals. Using Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, this review analyzed published literature spanning 1963 through 2023 documenting zoonotic enteric parasites in synanthropic wild mammals of Florida, excluding mice and rats.

Highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 is known for its virulence and zoonotic potential, infecting birds and mammals, thus raising public health concerns. Since 2021 its spread among birds has led to cross-species transmission causing epizootics among mammals, eventually impacting fur animal farms in Finland in 2023. To analyze the infectivity of the Finnish H5N1 isolates in human cells, representatives of diverse H5N1 isolates were selected based on the genetic differences, host animal species, and the year of occurrence.
