SUMMARY A serologic survey for Brucella canis was conducted in opossums and 7 species of wild carnivores collected from 5 states. A total of 770 serums were tested. One raccoon, 1 bobcat, 1 red fox, and 2 coyotes were seropositive. Results for 16 coyote serums were considered inconclusive. Reactors were not detected among striped skunks, gray foxes, wolves, or opossums.
