Zoonotic tuberculosis (zTB) is a form of human tuberculosis acquired from an animal source, mainly caused by Mycobacterium bovis and M. caprae. In Europe, zTB is relatively rare with 171 notified cases in 2024, being Spain the country that reported the most zTB cases and is the second highest bovine tuberculosis prevalence within the EU countries. However, it has never studied at national level whether zTB cases are related to the animal TB outbreaks
