Textbook of Parasitic Zoonoses
Subhash Chandra Parija (Editor), Abhijit Chaudhury (Editor)
Parasitic diseases in humans area major public health problem in Asian,
African, and South American continents, and with measurable presence in
Europe, North America,and Australia. The vast majorityof the parasitoses are
linked directly or indirectly to the animal populations, leading to a scenario
that most of the human parasitic diseases are zoonotic in nature. Industrializa-
tion and population burden have taken a heavy toll on the natural eco-systems
of the globe,where humans are venturing into unexplored animal territories
by expanding the cities, destroying the forests, building dams, etc. for their
personal use and thus disturbing the flora and fauna of a region.These human
activities have resulted in many parasites crossing the boundary into human
domain and an increase in emerging and re-emerging parasitic zoonoses
caused by so-called strict animal pathogens. Increased global connectivity
has further facilitated in spreading these pathogens from their unique ecologic
niche to virgin areas with similar environment. Manipulation of animals in the
food stock enterprises for better and higher yields by diverse measures has
resulted in altered microbiota in these animals. This has contributed to
parasites travelling beyond the boundary and posing a threat to mankind. In
essence, it is the human activities including the human behaviour that have
also contributed immensely to the dissemination of the animal pathogens and
zoonotic diseases to alarge extent.
