| Popis: | Wildlife tuberculosis is a major economic and conservation concern globally. Bovine tuberculosis (bTB), caused byMycobacterium bovis(M. bovis), is the most common form of wildlife tuberculosis. In South Africa, to date,M. bovisinfection has been detected in 24 mammalian wildlife species. The identification ofM. bovisinfection in wildlife species is essential to limit the spread and to control the disease in these populations, sympatric wildlife species and neighboring livestock. The detection ofM. bovis-infected individuals is challenging as only severely diseased animals show clinical disease manifestations and diagnostic tools to identify infection are limited. The emergence of novel reagents and technologies to identifyM. bovisinfection in wildlife species are instrumental in improving the diagnosis and control of bTB. This review provides an update on the diagnostic tools to detectM. bovisinfection in South African wildlife but may be a useful guide for other wildlife species. |
