Which of the following is a reservoir for Campylobacter Enteritis?

Campylobacter enteritis is primarily associated with the consumption of contaminated poultry, particularly chickens. Chickens are known to be common reservoirs for Campylobacter jejuni, the most frequently implicated species in this type of infection. These bacteria often colonize the gastrointestinal tract of birds without causing illness, making poultry a significant source of Campylobacter infection in humans.

When undercooked or improperly handled, chicken can transfer the bacteria to food products, leading to outbreaks. Thus, the association of Campylobacter enteritis with chickens is well-documented in food safety and public health literature. Other animals listed, while they may carry various pathogens, are not as closely linked to Campylobacter enteritis specifically as chickens are. This clear epidemiological link reinforces the importance of proper poultry handling and cooking to prevent Campylobacter infection.
