Abstract

In situ conservation efforts are assisting the recovery of free-ranging populations of the endangered peninsular pronghorns (Antilocapra americana peninsularis) at the Vizcaino Biosphere Reserve, Baja California Sur, Mexico. We detected a polymicrobial dermal infection. Etiologic agents were identified as a keratinophilic dermatomycete and opportunistic pathogenic bacteria.
