Abstract

The death of more than 17,500 pelicans between the coasts of Peru, Ecuador and Venezuela, triggered an epidemiological alert when detecting that the A(H5N1) virus was responsible. Quarantine that in Venezuela extended to five states (departments). Likewise, the high prevalence of intestinal parasitism in Venezuelan Pelicans could be enhancing the ravages of the virus in this species. Undoubtedly, Pelecanus sp. is the main victim in the spread of these infections and has unintentionally become a reservoir of avian influenza and enteroparasites that can be transmitted to humans, which prioritizes the need to control the spread of the virus. so as not to have to eliminate entire populations of these birds that are at the top of the trophic chain and that are essential for the healthy maintenance of the regional ecology and at the same time avoid the jump of these infections to humans.
