During the translocation process in the nature reserves where Eld’s deer live, we collected throat swabs, anal swabs, and swab samples from tick bite sites. After sample collecting, all Eld’s deer were released on-site as soon as possible. We have no experiments on live vertebrates, but only identified the microorganisms in swab samples. All methods were carried out in accordance with relevant guidelines and regulations of the Ethics Committee of the Hainan Medical University (approval no. HMUEC20180059).
