| Abstract: | Animal tuberculosis (TB) persists in multi-host communities Transmission occurs via shared contaminated environments; Integration of host ecology and environmental data is crucial. Indirect interactions more frequent → wet season
• Natural resource availability increased wildlife-cattle interactions.
• 49% environmental samples positive for MTBC DNA. Main contamination predictor: terrain slope 26.5% area = high transmission risk (mostly forest). |
