dc.description.abstractDisease outbreaks in both domestic and wild systems in recent years indicate the increasing potential for disease spill-over of generalist pathogens between domestic and wild species. Events of this nature are of considerable threat to rare or endangered species, while also being of significant economic concern for the farming industry. Understanding how disease moves within and between these contrasting systems is vital to prevent large-scale, multi-system epidemics in the future. This study utilized network analysis to understand how the movement of ostrich stock between farm locations in the Western Cape, South Africa may have contributed an epidemic outbreak of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) within the ostrich industry in 2011.en_ZA
