Fecal bacterial communities of the platypus ( <i>Ornithorhynchus anatinus</i> ) reflect captivity status – implications for conservation and management

2023-12-05

Abstract excerpt

The duck-billed platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus ) is currently listed as ‘Near-Threatened’ under the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List based on observed population declines and local extinctions. A key part of the conservation strategy for this species is its captive maintenance; however, captive animals often undergo significant changes in their gut microbiome. The study of the gu...
