مستخلص: | Anthrax is a zoonotic disease caused by a spore-forming gram-positive bacterium, Bacillus anthracis. Increased anthropogenic factors inside wildlife-protected areas may worsen the spillover of the disease at the interface. Consequently, environmental suitability prediction for B. anthracis spore survival to locate a high-risk area is urgent. Here, we identified a potentially suitable habitat and a high-risk area for appropriate control measures. Our result revealed that a relatively largest segment of Omo National Park, about 23.7% (1,218 square kilometers) of the total area; 36.6% (711 square kilometers) of Mago National Park, and 29.4% (489 square kilometers) of Tama wildlife Reserve predicted as a high-risk area for the anthrax occurrence in the current situation. Therefore, the findings of this study provide the priority area to focus on and allocate resources for effective surveillance, prevention, and control of anthrax before it causes devastating effects on wildlife.
