Kidneys from cattle at slaughter were examined for the presence of leptospires. Of 218 kidneys leptospires were isolated from 18; all were identified as leptospira interrogans serovar hardjo. None of the leptospire-infected kidneys had histopathological lesions indicative of leptospirosis and leptospires were demonstrated in only 2 by immunogold silver staining.
