Figure 1. Estimated age-specific prevalence of tuberculosis (TB) in a sample of 407 ferrets (Mustela furo) from Molesworth Station in the Marlborough region of New Zealand. Age classes are monthly below 1 year, then pooled for 16–18 months old and >23 months. Age-specific prevalence of TB was estimated by ageing all infected ferrets and a random selection of uninfected ferrets, using the latter to estimate the age distribution for all uninfected ferrets (from Nugent and Whitford Citation2008).
