Abstract
With the objective to determine the infection frequency by coccidia protozoa, 159 fecal samples from captive wiid camivores were analyzed. A 10.7% of the animal analyzed were positive to the infection. Whereas the family Procyonidae has a high percentage of positivity (35%), Canidae have lower infection ratio (23-33%) and Felidae only 0.3%). Family Musteldiae show negative findings
