The Prevalence of Salmonella spp. in Two Arctic Fox ( Alopex lagopus ) Farms in Poland
The objective of the study was to determine the occurrence of Salmonella spp. infections in two Arctic fox ( Alopex lagopus ) farms in Poland, and to analyse the correlations between animals that tested positive for Salmonella spp and breeding results. Faecal samples were taken from 1094 clinically...
