Dirofilaria immitis: A New Potential Pathogen for the Endangered Iberian Lynx (Lynx pardinus)

Heartworm disease caused by Dirofilaria immitis is a vector-borne disease that affects many species of both domestic and wild carnivores. We investigated the seroprevalence of D. immitis infections in one of the most endangered felids in the world, the Iberian Lynx (Lynx pardinus), which currently o...
