Abstract

Wildlife plays an important and complex role in the emergence of new diseases and the maintenance of endemic infectious diseases. The majority of the recent emerging diseases were caused by zoonotic viruses of wildlife origin and had significant impacts on public health and economies. Wildlife can act as a reservoir or maintenance or spill-over or amplifier hosts or simply a liaison host of diseases transmissible to human beings and farmed livestock. Anthropogenic factors like agricultural expansion, habitat destruction, urbanisation, trade of exotic or domestic animals and global travel comprise major drivers of the emergence of zoonotic disease. The viral families Arenaviridae, Coronaviridae, Flaviviridae, Filoviridae, Hepeviridae, Hantaviridae, Herpesviridae, Nairoviridae, Orthomyxoviridae, Peribunyaviridae, Paramyxoviridae, Phenuiviridae, Poxviridae, Reoviridae, Rhabdoviridae, and Togaviridae enclose viruses which represent most of the viral zoonoses of wildlife origin. The basic factors influencing the disease emergence from wildlife species are also the major drivers of biodiversity loss. Therefore, emerging zoonotic viruses are not only potential threats to human beings but can also be harmful to wildlife species. Thus, there is a convincing and effective chance for mutual gains for the conservation of wildlife and public health by collective and collaborative attempts.
