Wildlife plays a crucial role in the emergence and transmission of diseases shared between humans and animals. Many wild species, such as bats, rodents, migratory birds, and carnivores, serve as natural reservoirs for various pathogens—including viruses, bacteria, and parasites—that can be transmitted to humans or domestic animals either directly through contact, bites, or consumption of contaminated meat, or indirectly via vectors such as mosquitoes and ticks, or through water and soil contamination by animal waste. As human activities expand into natural habitats through deforestation, urbanization, intensive agriculture, and the wildlife trade, the interaction between humans and wild animals increases, leading to the emergence of new diseases such as avian influenza, rabies, and Lyme disease.
