Study finds wild birds near humans carry antibiotic-resistant bacteria, highlighting need for global efforts in conservation, public health, and agriculture.
A study from the University of Oxford reveals that wild birds, including ducks and crows, living near humans carry antibiotic-resistant bacteria, serving as reservoirs for these bacteria.
These birds, particularly those in urban environments, have a wider range of bacterial strains and up to three times more antibiotic-resistant genes compared to their isolated counterparts.
The findings stress the need for global efforts in wildlife conservation, public health, and agriculture to limit the spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
