Abstract
Trypanosomes cause disease in humans and livestock throughout sub-Saharan Africa. Although various species show
evidence of clinical tolerance to trypanosomes, until now there has been no evidence of acquired immunity to natural
infections.WediscoveredadistinctpeakanddecreaseinageprevalenceofT.bruceis.l.infectioninwildAfricanlionsthatis
consistent with being driven by an exposure-dependent increase in cross-immunity following infections with the more
geneticallydiversespecies,T.congolensesensulatu.Thecausativeagentofhumansleepingsickness,T.bruceirhodesiense,
disappears by 6 years of age apparently in response to cross-immunity from other trypanosomes, including the non-
pathogenic subspecies, T. brucei brucei. These findings may suggest novel pathways for vaccinations against
