A Metagenomic Analysis of the Fecal Microbiota of the Critically Endangered Eastern Bongo

2024-06-22

Abstract excerpt

The Eastern Bongo ( Tragelaphus eurycerus isaaci ) is a critically endangered mammal. In zoos, this animal has been known to have a sensitive gastrointestinal tract. Using a metagenomic approach the purpose of this study was to determine the microbiota of two adult (n=2) Eastern Bongos living in a zoo in South Dakota, as well as a juvenile (n=6) over a six-week period to see the microbial succession, and to learn...
