Livestock grazing, climatic variation, and breeding phenology jointly shape disease dynamics and survival in a wild amphibian

2021-09-01

Abstract excerpt

Wildlife responses to infectious disease can be influenced by environmental stressors that alter host-pathogen dynamics. We investigated how livestock grazing, climatic variation, and breeding phenology influence disease prevalence and annual survival in boreal toad (Anaxyrus boreas boreas) populations challenged with Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), a fungal pathogen implicated in global amphibian declines. W...
