摘要 This study evaluated landscape characteristics associated with the incidence of ferret badger (Melogale
moschata) rabies in the East Epidemic Area, Taiwan, where the disease has been endemic from 2013 till date. This
study included 268 cases of ferret badger rabies reported from 59 townships during 2013-2016. A multivariable
logistic regression analysis revealed that for townships with elevation between 0 and 200 m, or between 201 and 600
m, the estimated probability of the incidence of ferret badger rabies for each township increases with the rise of forest
area. For townships with elevation higher than 600 m, the association is negative, a fact reflected by the interaction
effect between variables of forest and elevation fitted in the model. This model provided by the combination of
different land use types, human population density and elevation measures of townships, may be used in estimating
the incidence probability of prioritizing areas for ferret badger rabies control on oral vaccination.
