Wildlife Diseases and Zoonosis: Interconnections, Impacts and Integrated Solutions

Dundappa M. Sarashetti

Abstract: Zoonotic diseases threaten public health, biodiversity, and global economies. The rising incidence of zoonotic outbreaks is linked to habitat encroachment, wildlife trade and climate change, disrupting the delicate equilibrium between humans, animals and the environment. This paper examines the biology of wildlife diseases, their modes of transmission and their cascading impacts across ecosystems. This paper explores the socio-economic challenges and scientific gaps in managing zoonotic risks by analyzing case studies like SARS-CoV-2, Nipah virus and avian influenza. Furthermore, the study underscores the importance of the ?One Health? approach and emphasizes the need for enhanced surveillance systems, policy interventions, and community engagement to mitigate future outbreaks.
