Abstract: RESUMO Objetivou-se com este estudo pesquisar a ocorrência de anticorpos anti-Toxoplasma gondii em carcarás (Caracara plancus) capturados no Aeroporto Internacional do Recife/Guararapes Gilberto Freyre, Pernambuco, Brasil. Foram analisadas 115 amostras de soros sanguíneos pelo teste de aglutinação modificada (IgG, MAT≥25) utilizando taquizoítos inativados em formalina. Do total de amostras analisadas, 5,21% (6/115) foram positivas para presença de anticorpos anti-T. gondii, 16,67% com título 1:25 (1/06) e 83,3… Show more

“…The space in which the animals were found was shared, including healthy animals, ready for environmental reintegration, sick and injured animals, as well as mutilated animals that remain in the screening center, which generates a potential for contamination between them. We emphasize that Rupornis magnirostris and Caracara plancus are well adapted to urban environments, especially Caracara plancus [ 42 ]. So these animals may have been contaminated by the environment and may have transmitted these pathogens among other animals that also returned to the natural environment, indicating that these bird of prey can be potential carriers and disseminators of resistant microorganismss and/or biofilm producers to other environments, other animals, and in humans, causing infections that are considered public health problem because all these bacteria are human pathogens that play an important role in drug resistance dissemination and potentialize several serious human infections, including septicemia and death [ 43 – 45 ].…”

“…The live-trapping procedure was a part of an official bird strike control protocol of Salgado Filho International Airport at Porto Alegre municipality, Rio Grande do Sul (RS) state. The single-door Tomahawk live-traps (1.15 m × 40 × 60 cm) were baited with carcasses of domestic quail (Coturnix japonica) [23]. Traps were opened twice a week at 8 am, and revisited at 2-h intervals during daytime.…”
