The National Wildlife Health Center (NWHC) is a science center of the United States Geological Survey. NWHC is located in Madison, Wisconsin, on a 24-acre plot of land that includes a main building and tight isolation building (TIB). The facility houses Bio-safety Level 3 (BSL-3) and Bio-safety Level 2 (BSL-2) laboratories on site. The center studies several diseases that affect American wildlife including bat white nose syndrome, chronic wasting disease (CWD), avian influenza, and sylvatic plague, among others.

has abstract	Das National Wildlife Health Center (NWHC) ist eine Forschungseinrichtung des United States Geological Survey (USGS), die sich mit der Erforschung von Krankheiten bei wildlebenden Tieren befasst. Die Einrichtung wurde 1975 gegründet und mit der Aufgabe betraut, als biomedizinisches Laboratorium die Auswirkungen von Krankheiten auf wildlebende Tiere zu bewerten und zu untersuchen, in welchem Umfang verschiedene Krankheitserreger Einfluss auf die Verringerung des Wildbestandes haben. Das NWHC hat seinen Sitz in Madison (Wisconsin). Eine der Hauptaufgaben des NWHC ist aktuell die Überwachung von Ausbrüchen des Influenza-A-Virus H5N1 („Vogelgrippe“) bei wildlebenden Tieren in den Vereinigten Staaten. (de) The National Wildlife Health Center (NWHC) is a science center of the United States Geological Survey. NWHC is located in Madison, Wisconsin, on a 24-acre plot of land that includes a main building and tight isolation building (TIB). The facility houses Bio-safety Level 3 (BSL-3) and Bio-safety Level 2 (BSL-2) laboratories on site. The center studies several diseases that affect American wildlife including bat white nose syndrome, chronic wasting disease (CWD), avian influenza, and sylvatic plague, among others. In addition to the study of disease, NWHC has the capability to diagnose the causes of mass wildlife die-offs. This is done via necropsy and the work of several pathologists, biologists, and other scientists. The scientists are able to run toxicology, heavy metal and tissue analyses to determine cause of death. A notable instance of this capability in use was during the mass die-off of birds, primarily red-winged blackbirds, in Beebe, Arkansas, on December 31, 2010. The NWHC determined the die-off to be the result of blunt trauma, most likely caused when the birds were frightened out of their nests at night by fireworks. (en)
