    Abstract:
    In Colombo/Sri Lanka wild dogs were investigated for various zoonoses. Based on the poor general conditions the contamination rate was relatively high. 27 of the 30 dog sera reacted positive against Listeriosis. 17 of the 29 samples reacted against Q-fever in low titers, however, because of the highly purified antigen used these are evaluated as positive. The contamination rate was 100%. 18 sera reacted positive against the RMSF-group antigen. 14 samples reacted positive against Chlamydiasis. 17 samples reacted positive against Echinococcosis and in the Brucellosis samples 3 were positive. 7 positive reactions were found against Adenovirus.
