传染病对许多濒临灭绝的食肉动物种群构成了重要的灭绝风险。野生犬科动物特别容易受到家犬传播的普通病原体的影响，特别是狂犬病病毒和犬瘟热病毒（CDV）。在这里，我们回顾了狂犬病对埃塞俄比亚狼的威胁，埃塞俄比亚狼是一种仅限于埃塞俄比亚高地几个孤立的非洲高山山脉的濒临灭绝的犬科动物，以及狂犬病对贝尔山脉最大种群的影响。在贝尔山脉，1991-1992 年和 2003-2004 年，埃塞俄比亚狼中两次确认狂犬病爆发，导致焦点狼群死亡率超过 70%，并且怀疑在 1990 年爆发了第三次狂犬病爆发。本综述还提出了埃塞俄比亚狼的综合疾病管理策略，结合了长期种群监测、疾病监测、常规和紧急疫苗接种计划以及先进的建模技术。
Infectious diseases pose an important extinction risk for a number of endangered carnivore populations. Wild canids are particularly susceptible to generalist pathogens transmitted from domestic dogs – particularly rabies virus and canine distemper virus (CDV). Here we present a review of rabies as a threat to Ethiopian wolves, an endangered canid restricted to a few isolated Afro-alpine ranges in the Ethiopian highlands, and the impact of rabies on the largest population in the Bale Mountains. In the Bale Mountains, two confirmed rabies outbreaks among Ethiopian wolves in 1991–1992 and 2003–2004 were each responsible for over 70% mortality among focal packs and a third rabies outbreak was suspected in 1990. This review also presents an integrated disease management strategy for Ethiopian wolves combining long-term population monitoring, disease surveillance, conventional and emergency vaccination programs, and advanced modelling techniques.
