最近的报告自然副结核病（或约翰氏病）在兔子，狐狸，白鼬集中辩论的存在和野生动物水库的重要性，这种疾病的流行病学。本文介绍了一项广泛的研究调查18非反刍动物的野生动物物种的副结核病的证据。使用文化和组织病理学分析，狐狸，白鼬，黄鼠狼，乌鸦，乌鸦，寒鸦，大鼠，木鼠，野兔，獾被发现窝藏鸟分枝杆菌亚种，副结核病，副结核病的病原体，这表明这种疾病的流行病学比以前认识到的更复杂。
Recent reports of natural paratuberculosis (or Johne's disease) in rabbits, foxes, and stoats has focused debate on the presence and importance of wildlife reservoirs in the epidemiology of this disease. This paper describes an extensive study investigating 18 nonruminant wildlife species for evidence of paratuberculosis. Using both culture and histopathological analysis, fox, stoat, weasel, crow, rook, jackdaw, rat, wood mouse, hare, and badger were found to harbor Mycobacterium avium subsp, paratuberculosis, the causative organism of paratuberculosis, suggesting that the epidemiology of this disease is more complex than previously realized.
