INBREEDING DEPRESSION INCREASES SUSCEPTIBILITY TO BOVINE TUBERCULOSIS IN LIONS: AN EXPERIMENTAL TEST USING AN INBRED–OUTBRED CONTRAST THROUGH TRANSLOCATION

1 Jul 2011

Abstract excerpt

Disease can dramatically influence the dynamics of endangered wildlife populations, especially when they are small and isolated, with increased risk of inbreeding. In Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Park (HiP), a small, enclosed reserve in South Africa, a large lion (Panthera leo) population arose from a small founder group in the 1960s and started showing conspicuous signs of inbreeding. To restore the health status of the...
