Open-access Salmonella Braenderup isolation in Hyacinth macaw (Anodorhynchus hyacinthinus)

AuthorshipSCIMAGO INSTITUTIONS RANKINGS

    The sanitary monitoring of free-living Hyacinth macaw (Anodorhynchus hyacinthinus) allows adjusting the management in altered natural habitat. To evaluate the occurrence of Salmonella spp. it was collected cloacal swabs of this nestlings species, in the Pantanal wetlands, in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. One Salmonella-like colony was serologically typed and identified as Salmonella Braenderup. Due to the high zoonotical potential of this microorganism, it is important an effective sanitary control of wildlife psittacines. In the literature searched it was not found any report on isolation of this bacterium in Hyacinth macaw for both free-living and captive animals.
