I know of one case where there was quite an amount of disturbance in a forested area a few years ago and, after that, three or four nearby farms were affected by TB outbreaks. The outbreaks occurred between six and nine months after the disturbance. One could assume that the wildlife was pushed out of the forest when the works were going on. Again, it is just something on which I would like clarification. If there is any further information available on this question, I would appreciate it.
