“…The fine needle aspirate cytology obtained from the right radius and ulna was suggestive of suppurative osteomyelitis associated with intralesional bacillary bacteria, which was confirmed in culture. This infection could have been related to an earlier trauma and was receding at the time of sampling, probably due to the various antibiotic treatments and the low antibiotic resistance of the colonising bacteria, as in another case that involved Staphylococcus sciuri (Godoy et al., 2016). The administration of long‐acting amoxicillin as first line of treatment, IM or SC, has shown to maintain constant inhibitory concentrations for sensitive bacteria for up to 48 h (Porta et al., 2015) which can be ideal for animals not comfortable with constant medication.…”

The maned wolf, Chrysocyon brachyurus, is the largest South American canid, with a natural distribution that stretches across Peru, Bolivia, Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay. The present study reports the case of a rescued specimen of maned wolf that underwent a rehabilitation process in Paraguay, starting in October 2020 with its rescue, and finalising in May 2021 with the reintroduction. Herein, we document findings regarding the general management, biometrics, feeding and environmental enrichment; chemical immobilisation and monitoring; haematology, blood biochemistry and specific serology‐relevant pathogens; skin examination and bone marrow cytology; orthopaedic, ophthalmological and dental evaluation; abdominal and cardiac ultrasonography; radiology and copro‐parasitology. Main findings include the feeding habits of the individual and enrichment opportunities. The animal weighed 7 kg on arrival, with an estimated age of 5 months, and 18 kg on reintroduction, with an estimated age of 1 year. The animal tested negative to serologic tests for Brucella canis, Dirofilaria, canine distemper, Toxoplasmosis and canine parvovirus. Leptospira testing showed antibodies against L. grippotyphosa on both samplings, L. wolffi and L. ictero on the first sampling, and L. pomona on the second sampling. Abdominal organs were examined and measured through ultrasound evaluation and kidneys showed no alterations. Echocardiography showed preserved mitral, tricuspid and aortic valve flows, but turbulent pulmonary valve flow. Copro‐parasitology reported the presence of Lagochilascaris sp. and Balantidium sp. All the information gathered aided in diagnosing the health status of the individual, and the response to environmental enrichment helped assess the behaviour, which led to the suggestion of reintroducing the animal. These data constitute the first published health check of a maned wolf in Paraguay, which can contribute to the species’ conservation in the country. The protocol presented in this study can serve as a basis for developing an action plan for the maned wolf in Paraguay.

“…23,29,42 The isolation of this agent in nondomestic canids suggests a possible adaptation of this pathogen to new hosts and raises questions about the epidemiologic role of these animals. 21,31,49 It is also important to note that, over the past decade, the emergence of multidrug-resistant S. pseudintermedius in dogs has become a problem of great concern in veterinary medicine. 35 However, the isolates recovered in the present study were susceptible to almost all antimicrobials tested.…”

Vancomycin susceptibility profiles of Staphylococcus spp. isolates from domestic and wild animals

Staphylococcus spp. are bacteria involved in human and animal infections. They are resistant to antimicrobials and have become a major public health concern. In recent years, there has been a significant increase in methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus strains and vancomycin is the drug of choice for the treatment of such isolates. However, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of vancomycin necessary to combat this microorganism has been showing an increase. The aim of the present study was to determine the susceptibility profile of the Staphylococcus spp. of domestic and wild animals to vancomycin, using the microdilution in broth and E-test® techniques, as well as comparing the results of both tests. Of the 50 isolates tested, 47 (94 %) were sensitive to vancomycin in the microdilution and 43 (86 %) were sensitive to vancomycin in the E-test®. Seven (14 %) isolates had an intermediate result showing a risk to public health since the detection of these isolates may precede the occurrence of isolates resistant to vancomycin. In addition, the mecA gene was detected in 78 % of the tested samples. Six of the seven isolates with intermediate resistance to vancomycin were carriers of the mecA gene, showing that these isolates had a potential risk of becoming resistant. Thus, control measures must be taken to prevent the spread of these isolates with intermediate resistance and preserve the effectiveness of this antimicrobial for the treatment of infections caused by multiresistant Staphylococcus spp.
