This letter reports the detection of antimicrobial resistance in a wildlife species, indicating a One Health challenge.
This letter describes possible pathogen and antimicrobial resistance spillover from agricultural systems to wildlife through detection of zoonotic streptococci with resistance to a common veterinary antibiotic in a wild Tasmanian platypus (Ornithorhynchus anatinus). We propose platypus as a potential One Health sentinel species for surveillance in freshwater ecosystems.
