Leishmania infantum in Tigers and Sand Flies from a Leishmaniasis-Endemic Area, Southern Italy
We detected Leishmania infantum infection in 45% of tigers and 5.3% of sand flies tested at a zoo in southern Italy in 2019. These infections in tigers and the abundance of Phlebotomus perniciosus sand flies represent a potential risk to other animals and humans living in or visiting the zoo.
