African swine fever (ASF) is a highly lethal viral disease that affects domestic and wild suids. Its capacity for transboundary spread makes it one of the greatest threats to animal health and the global swine production industry. The emergence of ASF in Europe and its sustained circulation among Eurasian wild boar (Sus scrofa) populations have placed this species at the center of the disease’s ...]]>https://www.visavet.es/en/estimating-the-velocity-and-direction-of-african-swine-fever-spread-in-wild-boar-populations-in-south-korea-using-trend-surface-analysis/37=1941/Thu, 02 Apr 2026 00:00:00 +0200Investigationhttps://www.visavet.es/en/estimating-the-velocity-and-direction-of-african-swine-fever-spread-in-wild-boar-populations-in-south-korea-using-trend-surface-analysis/37=1941/PLoS ONE publish this investigation article

African swine fever (ASF) is a lethal disease of swine that has spread across Asia since its introduction in 2018. South Korea first reported the disease in September 2019 in domestic pigs, and since then, more than 4,000 cases have been reported in wild boars during its expansion up to August 2024. Due to the high number of ASF notifications in wild boars in South Korea, contrasted with their sca...]]> https://www.visavet.es/en/international-collaboration-success-in-groundbreaking-research-revealing-tuberculosis-transmission-risks-between-humans-and-african-great-apes/77=230/Fri, 27 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0100Investigationhttps://www.visavet.es/en/international-collaboration-success-in-groundbreaking-research-revealing-tuberculosis-transmission-risks-between-humans-and-african-great-apes/77=230/An innovative environmental sampling methodology reveals a concerning epidemiological link

Mycobacteria (Mycobacteriaceae family) comprise five genera (Mycobacterium, Mycolicibacterium, Mycolicibacter, Mycolicibacillus, and Mycobacteroides), which include relevant animal and human pathogens. Histology is a rapid method for preemptively diagnosing mycobacteriosis, contributing to surveillance, control, and eradication. A constraint on histology is the limited sensitivity and specificity ...]]>https://www.visavet.es/en/histological-and-immunohistochemical-characterization-of-a-histiocytic-sarcoma-associated-with-a-follicular-lymphoma-in-a-ring-tailed-lemur-lemur-catta/37=1929/Sun, 01 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0100Investigationhttps://www.visavet.es/en/histological-and-immunohistochemical-characterization-of-a-histiocytic-sarcoma-associated-with-a-follicular-lymphoma-in-a-ring-tailed-lemur-lemur-catta/37=1929/Veterinary Medicine and Science publish this investigation article

A 20-year-old neutered male ring-tailed lemur (Lemur catta) diagnosed with an intrathoracic mass died during surgical excision. Morphological characteristics of the mass during necropsy were consistent with a mediastinal abscess in the left hemithorax.
