human-animal-environment interface

The human-animal-environment interface refers to the dynamic interactions where people, animals, and their shared surroundings influence each other. Changes like urban development, farming, and climate affect these relationships, often increasing the risk of disease transmission between animals and humans. Understanding this interface helps in managing health, conserving ecosystems, and preventing potential outbreaks of illnesses that can arise from close contact or environmental disturbances. It highlights the importance of balanced coexistence to protect both public health and ecological stability.
