Borrowing from the anthropology of hunting societies, it argues that simulations of bird diseases, considered as signs of future species extinction, rely on cynegetic techniques of power, in which humans and animals symmetrically shift perspectives, and not only on pastoralist techniques, in which humans are above the population they monitor and sometimes sacrifice. While public health relies on pastoral techniques of power combining sacrifice and surveillance to contain the threats coming from outside in a population (Foucault 1981) , the 'One World, One Health' approach uses techniques from birdwatchers and wildlife managers to monitor data about changing relations between humans and animals. ./cache/cord-253111-n5ywei4t.txt ./txt/cord-253111-n5ywei4t.txt
