Abstract

Introduction and Objective. Because of the armed conflict in Ukraine, companion, farm and captive wild animals have been moved in a simplified procedure across the Polish-Ukrainian border. For that reason, in 2022, Poznań Zoo provided support for almost 200 wild animals before movement to facilities in other countries. The aim of the study is to identify the under-recognized risk of moving animals that may be infected with zoonotic pathogens, such as Mycobacterium caprae , between countries. Materials and Method. Sections of the heart, lungs, and mesentery of 4-year-old lioness from Ukraine were taken for histopathological and bacteriological examination. Results. Microbiological examinations confirmed the presence of Mycobacterium caprae , SB0418 spoligotype. Conclusion. TB is a zoonotic disease present globally. Movement of captive wild animals from regions with MTBC cases, or lack of MTBC surveillance, such as UA may pose a potential threat to public health.

乌克兰一头圈养狮子患上狍结核分枝杆菌病 - 病例报告

导言和目的。由于乌克兰的武装冲突，伴侣动物、农场动物和人工饲养的野生动物通过简化程序被转移到波兰和乌克兰边境。因此，在 2022 年，波兹南动物园在将近 200 只野生动物转移到其他国家的设施之前为其提供了支持。本研究的目的是确定在国家间移动可能感染人畜共患病病原体（如嗜血分枝杆菌）的动物所带来的风险。材料与方法。对来自乌克兰的 4 岁雌狮的心脏、肺部和肠系膜切片进行组织病理学和细菌学检查。结果。微生物学检查证实了绒毛分枝杆菌 SB0418 spoligotype 的存在。结论：结核病是一种人畜共患病。结核病是一种全球性的人畜共患疾病。将圈养的野生动物从有 MTBC 病例的地区运出，或缺乏对 MTBC 的监测，如 UA，可能会对公共卫生构成潜在威胁。
