Full Description

This exam evaluates the behavioral ecological aspects of zoonotic disease transmission among animal populations. The focus will be on the social and environmental factors that affect disease spread.

Understanding animal behavior is vital for developing strategies to mitigate zoonotic disease transmission. Insights gained from this examination can inform policies aimed at reducing disease incidence in both animals and humans.

Candidates will be assessed on their ability to express the relationship between animal behavior and zoonotic disease dynamics, and to propose behavioral interventions for control measures.

Students are encouraged to support their arguments with empirical evidence and examples from recent research in behavioral ecology.

Sample Questions

  • What is the role of animal social behavior in the transmission of zoonotic diseases?
  • Can you provide an example of how environmental factors influence zoonotic disease dynamics?
