An Eight-Year Survey for Canine Distemper Virus Indicates Lack of Exposure in the Endangered Darwin's Fox (Lycalopex fulvipes)

Kroeger-Gómez H.; Dubovi E.J.

Abstract

No evidence of exposure to canine distemper virus (CDV) was detected in 70 samples corresponding to 58 wild-trapped Dar-win’s foxes (Lycalopex fulvipes) in Chile. Given its current endangered status and it being immuno-logically naïve, in the event of a CDV spillover from dogs to foxes, high population mortality is expected.
