Preface The purpose of this book is to share information and insights into emerging topics related to wildlife and food safety. While other texts have delved extensively into wildlife conservation, agriculture, and resource management, this book uniquely brings these subject areas together in a food safety context. The first half of the book addresses the prevalence, epidemiology, and ecology of foodborne pathogens in wildlife hosts. Beginning with a review of the major bacte- rial, parasitic, and viral pathogens associated with wildlife, the following chapters cover a wide range of international wildlife and food safety topics. The chapters not only bring together the available science in this relatively new area of research but also highlight the societal and economic implications where public health, food production, and wildlife conservation priorities sometimes conflict. In the second half of the book, strategies to mitigate microbial food safety risks from wildlife hosts are presented. Novel approaches in risk communication, co- management, and One Health are highlighted broadly by the authors through the description of real-world experiences. There is an emphasis on produce food safety because of the many recent foodborne disease outbreaks linked to contaminated fruit and vegetable crops, and the promulgation of new on-farm regulations by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) Produce Safety Rule. Wildlife intrusions are one of the potential sources of micro- bial contamination addressed in the proposed FSMA rule. Because of the unique role of wildlife in human societies, the book covers topics not usually addressed in scholarly discussions on food safety (e.g., human-wildlife conflict, wildlife-livestock interactions, habitat loss, illegal wildlife trade, endan- gered and invasive species). Balancing food safety, agriculture, and conservation goals are underlying themes throughout the book. Historically, wild animals have been used by humans for food, clothing, recreation, entertainment, and other utili- tarian purposes. But, increasingly attitudes about wildlife are shifting toward more ecologistic, humanistic, and moralistic feelings and beliefs (as defined by Kellert and Westervelt (1983)). These influences are addressed throughout the book, with many examples provided by the authors. vii viii Preface Our goal for this book is to advance the understanding of wildlife and food safety and assist in the development of the best science and policy to protect the public health, support a robust agriculture industry, and promote environmental steward- ship in a world shared by humans and wildlife. We thank our esteemed authors for sharing their expertise, time, and passion to create this book. It was an honor to work with such a distinguished group who pro- vided a variety of timely and well-informed perspectives. We are also grateful to Susan Safren for recognizing the importance of this topic and inviting us to publish this book, and to Michael Koy for his conscientious assistance with production. We have dedicated this book to the memory of Dr. William Keene, an incredible epide- miologist who had a passion for solving food-associated outbreaks in the interest of preventing future outbreaks. He never shied away from a public health challenge (or fecal sample). Davis, CA, USA Michele Jay-Russell Griffin, GA, USA Michael P.

Description:
Foodborne illnesses caused by zoonotic pathogens associated with wildlife hosts are an emerging microbial food safety concern. Transmission of foodborne pathogens can occur through ingestion, or improper handling, of contaminated game meat. Wild and feral animals have also been investigated as poten
