Sero-epidemiological investigations in wild animals may allow to assess the distribution of selected pathogens that sometimes seem to be involved in sanitary interrelationships between wild and domestic ungulates sharing the same areas. Serological studies were carried out to investigate the prevalence of antibodies against eight pathogens in Alpine ibex of the Albris colony (Grisons, Switzerland). Investigated sera came from 89 animals shot by gamekeepers between 1990 and 1991. Antibodies against smooth Brucella, Coxiella burnetii, Leptospira interrrogans, Borrelia burgdorferi, Mycobacterium paratuberculosis, BHV-1, and ovi-caprine lentiviruses were not detected in the tested sera. However, 31 % of the sera analysed were found to be positive for Chlamydia psittaci. Three sera showed high antibody levels suggestive of active infection in the animals. Results are discussed with reference to the methods used and the epidemiological situation in Switzerland and are compared with the results of serological investigations conducted on ibex in Italy and France.
