What are the objectives of controlling infectious diseases in wildlife?
- Primarily to protect human health against zoonoses in wildlife
- prevent diseases in the wildlife from being transmitted
- protect wildlife from destructive diseases
preventing wildlife disease transmission to livestock
separate livestock vector control vaccinations surveillance and ris assessment antemortem diagnostics and necropsy wildlife population control
disease control in wildlife
- burn and bury carcasses
- disinfect the watering holes
- dart vaccines
reservoir

study of viruses and viral disease
virology

defining a virus
non-living
have a nucleic genome surrounded by a protein coat and in some cases a lipid envelope
DO NOT have standard organelles
Do viruses have the genetic capability to multiply by division
no.
need a host because they cant make energy proteins alone.
obligate intracellular parasites
capsid + nucleic acid
nucleocapsid
protein shell of a virus that encases the viral nucleic acid genome
capsid
what is a capsid composed of
capsomeres held by non covalent bonds
