Abstract excerpt

The COVID-19 pandemic heightened public awareness and concern about the risks of zoonotic diseases potentially affecting the conservation of declining species such as the European hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus). To investigate coronavirus prevalence, genetic diversity, and molecular characteristics relevant to the assessment of potential zoonotic risk in European hedgehogs, 430 hedgehog faecal samples were...
