Abstract

Serum samples from 62 dingoes (Canis familiaris dingo) trapped in five areas of southeastern New South Wales, Australia were tested for antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii. Six (10%) of the dingoes had direct agglutination test titers for T. gondii of ≥1:64, and four of these animals had T. gondii-specific IgM, suggesting recent exposure.
