The incidence of reptile-associated salmonellosis has increased in Western countries due to the increasing popularity of reptiles as pets. In Korea where reptiles are not popular as pets many zoos offer programs in which people have contact with animals including reptiles. So we determined the rate of Salmonella spp. infection in animals by taking anal swabs from 294 animals at Seoul Grand Park. Salmonella spp. were isolated from 14 of 46 reptiles 1 of 15 birds and 2 of 233 mammals . These findings indicate that vigilance is required for determining the presence of zoonotic pathogen infections in zoo animals and contamination of animal facilities to prevent human infection with zoonotic diseases from zoo facilities and animal exhibitions. In addition prevention of human infection requires proper education about personal hygiene. Keywoids reptile-associated salmonellosis salmonella zoo animal zoonotic disease Introduction Salmonellosis is one of the most important zoonotic diseases that affect both people and animals 6 . For example the Center for Disease Control and Prevention CDC in the United States has estimated that Salmonella caused million episodes of infection between 1999 and 2003 with over 7 of these infections caused by reptile-associated salmonellosis. Reptiles have become increasingly common as domestic pets and there has been an associated increased incidence of reptile-associated Salmonella infection in humans 5 14 17 . Reptiles are asymptomatic carriers of Salmonella infection
