title: Host Community Traits Driving Crimean‐Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus Maintenance in Iberian Ecosystems
abstract: Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a tick-borne zoonosis of significant public health concern, maintained in complex multihost systems shaped by ecological, climatic, and anthropogenic drivers. In the Iberian Peninsula, changing land-use patterns and biodiversity loss may be reshaping host communities in ways that alter local transmission dynamics. We conducted a landscape-scale study across 18 sites, integrating serological surveillance of wild ungulates (<i>n</i> = 1461; 69.4% wild boar
