Several studies have shown the importance of other reservoirs, such as mice or hedgehogs, which harbor other leptospires\u2019 serovars. Nevertheless, our knowledge of circulating <jats:italic>Leptospira<\/jats:italic> spp. in reservoirs other than rats remains limited. In this context, we proposed an eco-health approach to assess the health hazard associated with leptospires in urban green spaces, where contacts between human\/small mammals and domestic animals are likely. We studied the prevalence, the diversity of circulating strains, and epidemiology of pathogenic <jats:italic>Leptospira<\/jats:italic> species in small terrestrial mammal communities (rodents and shrews), between 2020\u20132022, in two parks in Lyon metropolis, France. Our study showed a significant carriage of <jats:italic>Leptospira<\/jats:italic> spp. in small terrestrial mammals in these parks and unveiled a global prevalence rate of 11.4%. Significant variations of prevalence were observed among the small mammal species (from 0 to 26.1%), with <jats:italic>Rattus norvegicus<\/jats:italic> exhibiting the highest infection levels (26.1%). We also observed strong spatio-temporal variations in <jats:italic>Leptospira<\/jats:italic> spp. circulation in its reservoirs. Prevalence seems to be higher in the peri-urban park and in autumn in 2021 and 2022. This is potentially due to differences in landscape, abiotic conditions and small mammal communities\u2019 composition. Our study suggests an important public health relevance of rats and in a lesser extent of other rodents (<jats:italic>Apodemus spp<\/jats:italic>., <jats:italic>Clethrionomys glareolus<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>Mus musculus<\/jats:italic>) as reservoirs of <jats:italic>L<\/jats:italic>. <jats:italic>interrogans<\/jats:italic>, with rodent species carrying specific serogroups\/serovars. We also emphasize the potential hazard associated between the shrew <jats:italic>Crocidura russula<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>L<\/jats:italic>. <jats:italic>kirschneri<\/jats:italic>. Altogether, these results improve our knowledge about the prevalence of leptospirosis in an urban environment, which is an essential prerequisite for the implementation of prevention of associated risks.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0300523","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,10]],"date-time":"2024-04-10T17:33:25Z","timestamp":1712770405000},"page":"e0300523","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pone.corrections_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":22,"title":["Prevalence,
