Abstract: Home range and home range overlap can be used to describe use of space and movement of wildlife. During the last years, advancements in technology have greatly improved our understanding of animal movement, especially among large herbivores. Wild ungulate abundance and distribution have increased in temperate areas. Moreover, their diseases—including sarcoptic mange in the Iberian Ibex (Capra pyrenaica)—have become a cause of concern for livestock, public health, and wildlife conservation. In this study, we fi… Show more

“…Mycoplasma conjunctivae endemicity in the NSSN Iberian ibex population seemed to be maintained mainly thanks to its circulation in naïve subadults getting infected, as shown by the higher subadult prevalence compared to adults in 2015 and 2016 (Table 3). Furthermore, young individuals can contribute to the spread of M. conjunctivae and other pathogens during their dispersion movements after leaving the familiar group where they were born [73]. The role of younger individuals in the maintenance of M. conjunctivae has already been reported in endemic situations, both in wild and domestic hosts [19,20,54].…”
