Abstract Infectious diseases can have devastating impacts on wildlife populations and are of particular concern for small, inbred populations. Identifying specific pathogens that are linked to morbidity and mortality in inbred individuals is a priority for the conservation of small populations, but opportunities to examine them in the wild are rare.
