Front. Vet. Sci. 11:1415335. doi: 10.3389/fvets.2024.14153352297-176910.3389/fvets.2024.1415335https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/105212Wildlife has coexisted with domestic animals in dynamic systems over thousands of years. Domestic-wildlife interfaces are intricate, encompassing physical spaces where wild and domestic species overlap and potentially interact, posing risks of pathogen transmission. The nature of this interface has changed over time and across landscapes, leading to continuous emergence of different conflicts. In addition, human processes that alter ecosystems have led to more interconnected interfaces and increased opportunities for the emergence and spread of shared pathogens. The main goal of this Research Topic was to promote integrative research at domestic-wildlife interfaces globally to characterize and better understand specific eco-epidemiological drivers of pathogen transmission. This knowledge is essential to support subsequent strategies and interventions for disease management and control.engAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/journal articlehttps://doi.org/10.3389/fvets.2024.141533538835890open access636.09BiosecurityDisease managementDomestic-wildlife interfaceEco-epidemiologyHuman-wildlife conflictInteraction risksVeterinaria3109 Ciencias Veterinarias
