Black bears are emerging as roaming reservoirs of antibiotic-resistant bacteria across expanding US ranges
A new gut microbiome study of bears in eastern North Carolina expands our understanding of microbial ecosystems in omnivores and contributes to the broader idea that bear feces could help scientists monitor changes in the environment.
