Abstract :

Infectious diseases are a major threat to human and animal health and an important cause of morbidity and mortality. The use of antibiotics in animals is more than 50 years old when using waste from the fermentation of chlorotétracycline that has improved animal growth and health. Since then, significant changes have taken place in animal feed production as well as in pet medicine. The use of antibiotics in veterinary and human medicine is considered the most important cause for the appearance and dissemination of antibiotic resistant microorganisms. This resistance does not include that pathogens, but also the endogenous flora of individuals (animals and humans) exposed to this type of medication. The use of antibiotics in veterinary and human medicine is considered to be the most important factor for the appearance and dissemination of antibiotic resistant microorganisms. This resistance does not include only the pathogens, but also the endogenous flora of individuals (animals and humans) exposed to this type of medication. Antibiotics resistance from animal origin can affect human health, directly or indirectly. Direct effects result from the transfers of antibiotic resistance bacteria to human. Infections can be caused by microorganisms transmitted from animals to humans (zoonosis), usually through food. While indirect effects occur when resistance genes from animal bacteria are transferred to bacteria pathogens for humans. Wild birds are vectors and reservoirs for the maintenance and spread of infections, interactions between humans and wild birds are evident, they reside in human habitats, migrate between waste collection areas.
