“…One study [42] concluded that above-mean summer temperatures facilitate mass development of infective E. rangiferi larvae in the gastropod intermediate hosts and thus can cause epidemics of cerebrospinal elaphostrongylosis with high mortalities, especially among calves. In the unusually warm summer of 2018, reindeer herders in Norway reported an outbreak of elaphostrongylosis; one herder apparently lost 70 animals of different ages [43]. Under conditions of predicted climate change, such outbreaks of elaphostrongylosis may increase.…”

“…Elevated predicted thermal suitability in the Trøndelag region (central Norway, ~63.5°N) over the past decade ( Figure 2 , 2000s and 2010s panels, Thermal Suitability Index 1–3) is supported by recent persistent outbreaks in this region [( 2 ), unpublished data]. These outbreaks were thought to be a result of the unusually warm summer of 2018 and were unusual in that reindeer of all ages were affected ( 10 ), suggesting significant transmission of L3 early in the spring-summer grazing season. Finally, the Norwegian Veterinary Institute diagnosed a 1-year old reindeer with elaphostrongylosis in June 2020 in Nordland, Norway (67°N).…”

“…The implications of our predictions for reindeer and their herders is potentially significant. Eighty percent of Norway's semi-domesticated reindeer are herded by the Sámi population in Finnmark county ( 3 ), which is the region predicted to have been most affected since 1950, and new outbreak foci have emerged in recent years ( 10 ). The predicted current thermal suitability could be used to raise awareness of the potential for E. rangiferi transmission on a broad spatial scale, aiding veterinary diagnoses and surveillance.…”

“…Trichinella spp. are important zoonotic parasites in the country and the region [ 17 ], and it is crucial that the One Health approaches addressing them cover not only domestic animals and humans, but also wildlife.…”
