Pigeons as Overlooked Vectors: Investigating Campylobacter Carriage Across Different Management Systems

2026-02-18

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> Background <italic>Campylobacter</italic> spp. are among the leading bacterial pathogens responsible for foodborne illness worldwide, yet the role of pigeons as reservoirs remains insufficiently investigated compared with poultry and livestock. Results In this study, we examined 450 pigeons from three distinct groups—backyard, racing, and ornamental flocks—to assess the prevalence,...
