Generalized tuberculosis due to Mycobacterium caprae in a red fox phylogenetically related to livestock breakdowns
Tuberculosis (TB) due to Mycobacterium caprae is endemic in goat herds and free-ranging wild boars in Spain, causing infections in other livestock or wild animals to a lesser extent. TB infection in foxes is infrequently reported and they are usually considered spillover hosts of TB.
