Poor data management has long limited wildlife health surveillance systems and hampered integration of environmental data into #OneHealth frameworks.

To address this gap, @wcs.org helped develop the Health and Wildlife Knowledge (HAWK) database. #HAWK

Integrating rangers into wildlife health monitoring can benefit biodiversity conservation, animal and human health at key human-wildlife interfaces and nature strongholds. #onehealth

Interfaces between wildlife, people and livestock are key #onehealth surveillance targets to monitor emergent or endemic pathogens or new threats

@wcs.org's WildHealthNet supports the development of locally-driven wildlife health surveillance networks: oneworldonehealth.wcs.org/Initiatives/...

@wcshealth.bsky.social detects, prevents, mitigates, and responds to threats to wildlife and ecosystem health, while strengthening resilience and equity through integrated, evidence-based action at the human–animal–environment interfaces. @wcs.org

Across @wcs.org Nature's Strongholds exposures to pollutants, pathogens, extreme weather events, heat stress, habitat degradation, nutritional disruption, and inequities create cumulative effects that threaten the survival of species, the integrity of ecosystems, and the wellbeing of communities.

As a One Health pioneer, @wcs.org delivers transdisciplinary, cross-sectoral actions across our global network, bridging conservation, wild and domestic animal health, public health, and policy to drive evidence-based, preventive solutions.
