Listeriosis is one of the zoonotic diseases affecting most parts of the Sub-Saharan countries. The infection is often transmitted by eating and it can also pass by respiratory and direct contact. In this paper, a listeriosis mathematical model is formulated involving fractal-fractional orders in both Caputo and Atangana-Baleanu derivatives. Moreover, future behaviors of the disease are investigated by considering the fractal-fractional operators that are very effective in modeling the real-life phenomena by virtue of their memory effect. The basic properties and steady states are also obtained. The threshold parameter for determining the spread of the disease is computed. Numerical results are presented for each fractal-fractional-order operator. The results obtained in the paper show that the numerical schemes are effective for predicting and analyzing complex phenomena. (C) 2019 THE AUTHORS.
