Biologically threatened dolphins and whales

Giovanni Di Guardo, Sandro Mazzariol, Antonio Fernández · Environmental Microbiology · 2011

Summary Among the several threats to which free‐ranging cetaceans are exposed, a number of biological noxae are believed to represent a serious hazard to their health and conservation on a global scale, with special emphasis on the Mediterranean Sea. These pathogens include viral agents such as Morbillivirus , which during the last 25 years have caused dramatic epidemics and die‐offs among several aquatic mammal species and populations worldwide, as well as Herpesvirus , protozoan agents such as Toxoplasma gondii and bacterial pathogens such as Brucella spp.
