Due to its complex and intricate nature, AMR pathogens and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) may be transmitted from one sector to another and one host to another. Thus, it is often said that resistance in anywhere is resistance in everywhere. Indiscriminate use of antibiotics is the single most important driver of AMR in any sector and due to its complex and multidimensional nature, it requires a well-coordinated and concerted one-health approach to address this issue. Further, recent years have witnessed emergence and reemergence of zoonotic diseases which have a long and catastrophic impact. Several AMR pathogens are zoonotic in nature. The ARGs may have vital role for determining the efficacy of chemotherapy in treating the zoonotic diseases. This chapter analyzes the characteristics and correlation of AMR with neglected zoonoses and its impact over human and animal health.</p>
