Abstract
Serum samples from 894 wild animals (representing 31 spp.) from Trinidad and Grenada were examined by microscopic agglutination for leptospiral antibodies: 198 were positive. These included 39 bats, 88 mongooses, 6 opossums, 10 peridomestic rodents, 15 forest rodents, 10 lizards and 30 toads. Thirteen pathogenic serogroups were involved. Thirty-nine Leptospira isolates were reported from mongooses, opossums, rodents and toads.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
