Which disease is spread by mosquitoes and alligators are highly susceptible to?

Rabies

Black spot disease

West Nile Virus

West Nile Virus is carried by mosquitoes and can infect a range of hosts, including alligators. In warm environments with active mosquito populations, alligators can become infected after a bite, which is why this disease is especially relevant for alligator facilities. The other options don’t match the scenario: rabies spreads primarily through bites from infected mammals and is not transmitted by mosquitoes; black spot disease and the term colonaris aren’t known to be driven by mosquito transmission to alligators.
