Features of the microbiota of falconiformes birds

Abstract

Anthropogenic transformation of natural biocenoses has an impact on ecological niches and zoocultives living in them. The number of domestic birds can now include many species of birds, one way or another changed by man, including birds of prey, protected and purposefully bred. Falconiformes occupied a special place in the cultural traditions of different countries and peoples. The paper considers aspects of biological transformation of falconiformes birds of prey species in the historical context. The results of screening studies of the microbiota of the pharynx and cloaca of falconiformes birds of aviary content (in formed third-degree zoocultives) are presented. The results of these studies reflect associative microbolometers and inapparently form of infection in birds. The data obtained indicate the potential risks of morbidity and infection with pathogenic bacteria in falconiformes under conditions of anthropogenic transformation.
