Malaria how do birds of prey get it?

Birds of Prey can contract malaria through the bite of infected mosquitoes that carry the Plasmodium parasite, which causes the disease. While malaria is more commonly associated with mammals, certain species of birds can also be hosts to malaria parasites. The transmission typically occurs in areas where both the mosquitoes and susceptible birds coexist. Additionally, environmental changes can influence the prevalence of malaria in bird populations.
