EXPERTS AGREED THAT YEAR ROUND PROTECTION IS A NEED

To see the big picture, we asked the experts. To understand how rising temperatures threaten animal health, we recruited 21 of Europe’s foremost experts on parasites, parasite-borne diseases, behavior, and One Health.

SPEAKING FROM EXPERIENCE

There are periods in spring and autumn where ticks are active, but pets are not being treated appropriately.

PROF. AGUSTÍN ESTRADA
Spain

In the Mediterranean region the first implication of rising temperatures is the presence of certain species of ticks all year round.

PROF. EZIO FERROGLIO

Everything is connected, so to have better human health, you need to take care of animal health and you need also to take care of the enviroment.

PROF. JACQUES GUILLOT

SPEAKING FROM EXPERIENCE

We have observed that sandflies are now active along the mediterranean coast for most of the year, increasing the number of canine leishmaniosis cases.

DR. JAVIER LUCIENTES
Spain

Year-round tick activity means that vector-borne diseases become a year-round problem.

PROF. LUKASZ ADASZEK
Poland

Two surveys performed in France showed that the endemic leishmaniosis zone grew by 60% over a period of eight years, as determined based on cases reported by vets.

EXPERT’S OPINION

Owners need straightforward information. Also, vets should behave as scientists and should be able to transmit information to pet owners. Vets are a critical link in the dissemination of information. This is a big challenge and vets need to understand how important this role is.

Professor of Parasitology and Mycology at the Veterinary College of Nantes (Oniris) and member of the research group IRF at the University of Angers
