Abstract

The spatial and temporal dynamics of paratuberculosis in rabbits within a hot spot region was studied with the aim of determining the environmental patterns of infection and the risk of interspecies transmission to livestocks. The aim of the study was to determine if the prevalence of paratuberculosis in rabbits varies temporally between seasons and whether the heterogeneous spatial environmental disturbance of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis on a large scale is replicated at finer resolutions within hot spots.
