Bushmeat and the next pandemic

Okoroba_mist.JPGMy latest piece for Wired, about UCLA biologist Nathan Wolfe’s efforts to detect and study viruses as they cross over from wild animals to humans in remote corners of the world, is out in the May issue. It’s on newsstands now, and also available online here.

Some additional photos from my reporting trip to Cameroon are currently online at Wired, and I’ll be posting more here later today.

Also coming: Some additional material that didn’t make the story cut. In the meantime, comments welcome or drop me an email at eratliff[at]atavistic.org.

UPDATE: I’ve put some more photos up. Captions up coming shortly.
