What it funds

Official synopsis as published by the agency, formatted for readability.

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is offering a funding opportunity to a CESU partner for disease research, data collection and technical assistance in wildlife anatomic pathology.  In addition to investigating wildlife diseases and their pathogeneses, veterinary wildlife pathologists also investigate zoonotic wildlife diseases of concern to human health and help to provide key information on the links between wildlife, domestic animal and human disease.  Given the dearth of information on existing wildlife diseases and the need to identify emerging diseases, it is important to engage partner support for these efforts.  The USGS National Wildlife Health Center investigates wildlife morbidity and mortality events, in part to uncover their etiology.  On-going research studies to further elucidate the pathology of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza Virus, Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus 2, White-Nose Syndrome, Snake Fungal Disease and emerging diseases of amphibians, among others, are supported by wildlife pathologists.
