Abstract

Zoonotic diseases, which are transmitted between animals and humans, pose a significant threat to public health. This article investigates the critical role of veterinary medicine in identifying, preventing, and controlling zoonotic diseases. It explores the mechanisms of zoonotic transmission, the veterinary interventions required to prevent outbreaks, and the importance of a One Health approach in managing zoonotic risks. The article emphasizes the need for a collaborative effort between veterinarians, public health officials, and environmental scientists to address this global health issue.
