Fecal microbiota is more stable during degradation and more diverse for ex situ cheetahs in Namibia compared to the USA by Morgan A. Maly, Morgan A. Maly, Morgan A. Maly, Morgan A. Maly, Reade B. Roberts, Mia M. Keady, Anne Schmidt-Küntzel, Meagan Maxwell, Laurie Marker, Matthew Breen, Carly R. Muletz-Wolz, Adrienne E. Crosier

“…Second, fresh ex situ cheetah samples under Namibian conditions had increased bacterial taxa, more phylogenetically diverse bacterial communities, and compositionally distinct microbiomes from cheetahs managed in human care in the USA. However, when bacterial ASVs were weighted by relative abundance, both populations shared 69% of their total bacterial sequences indicating a conserved cheetah microbiota between the two populations. …”

“…Statistical analysis (spatial, temporal, spatiotemporal and environmental determinants) of the SAGIR and AFVPZ network data helped to highlight the early appearance of separate large clusters of USUV cases in mid-July 2018, the subsequent diffusion into smaller and secondary clusters at the end of August 2018, and a meanwhile enlargement of the first clusters with an increase in the number of cases. High human density (top 10.5% densest areas in France) and wetland concentration (top 19.3% most likely wetland areas) were significant factors in USUV case locations. …”
