Traditionally considered a disease of the young or immuno\u2010compromised, and resulting in profuse diarrhoea in other species, here we report an atypical clinical syndrome associated with Cryptosporidium<\/jats:italic> in a captive population of koalas. All affected animals were in\u2010contact adults, and demonstrated anorexia, dehydration and abdominal pain in the absence of diarrhoea. Following euthanasia on welfare grounds, Cryptosporidium<\/jats:italic> infection was confirmed postmortem in three of four symptomatic animals via faecal floatation and\/or intestinal histopathology, with enteritis also diagnosed in the fourth koala. Further screening of the captive colony found the outbreak had been contained. Based on sequencing the cause of the infection was C.\u2009fayeri<\/jats:italic>, but the source was undetermined. In conclusion, Cryptosporidium<\/jats:italic> should be considered as a possible cause of generalised illness in koalas.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/avj.13323","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,12]],"date-time":"2024-02-12T01:54:21Z","timestamp":1707702861000},"page":"313-315","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Cryptosporidium<\/i>\u2010associated enteritis in captive koalas (Phascolarctos cinereus<\/i>)"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"102","author":[{"given":"I","family":"Hough","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Animal and Veterinary Science University of Adelaide Roseworthy Campus Roseworthy South Australia 5371 Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6046-0688","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"R","family":"O'Handley","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Animal and Veterinary Science University of Adelaide Roseworthy Campus Roseworthy South Australia 5371 Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5367-0241","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"N","family":"Speight","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Animal and Veterinary Science University of Adelaide Roseworthy Campus Roseworthy South Australia 5371 Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_4_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijpara.2008.03.006"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s13071-014-0492-8"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1751-0813.2003.tb14602.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.14202\/vetworld.2018.681-686"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.5372\/1905-7415.1004.493"},{"volume-title":"Diseases of koalas in zoo and wild animal medicine current therapy","year":"1999","author":"Booth R","key":"e_1_2_4_7_1"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2307\/3285678"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.exppara.2009.07.005"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.exppara.2009.02.003"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/s13567-017-0447-0"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.exppara.2009.07.014"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0020-7519(94)e0059-v"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/s0031182014001085"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/S0031182012001151"},{"key":"e_1_2_4_16_1","first-page":"463","volume-title":"Current therapy in medicine of Australian mammals","author":"Gillett A","year":"2019"}],"container-title":["Australian Veterinary Journal"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/avj.13323","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,3]],"date-time":"2024-06-03T01:33:39Z","timestamp":1717378419000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/avj.13323"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,11]]},"references-count":15,"journal-issue":{"issue":"6","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2024,6]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1111\/avj.13323"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1111\/avj.13323","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0005-0423","1751-0813"],"issn-type":[{"type":"print","value":"0005-0423"},{"type":"electronic","value":"1751-0813"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,11]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2023-07-27","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2024-01-21","order":1,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2024-02-11","order":2,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
