Best Answer

Explorers can get malaria from being bitten by infected mosquitoes in regions where the disease is prevalent. Malaria is caused by a parasite spread through the bite of mosquitos carrying the parasite. It is important for explorers to take preventive measures such as taking anti-malarial medication and using mosquito repellent when traveling to high-risk areas.
