自由放养的红狐（V. fulva）和灰狐（U. cinereogenteus）被困在威斯康星州西南部。检测狐狸血清中5种不同钩端螺旋体、犬瘟热病毒（CDV）、犬传染性肝炎病毒（ICHV）和土拉弗朗西斯菌感染的抗体阳性率，其中钩端螺旋体抗体阳性率最高；53只红狐中有25只（47%）和36只灰狐中有11只（31%）有特异性抗体。幼狐对钩伤寒杆菌的几何平均抗体滴度显著高于两种成狐（P < 0.05）。仅在红狐血清中检测到CDV抗体。57只红狐中有6只（11%）有CDV抗体。57只红狐中2只（3%）和32只灰狐中3只（9%）检出ICHV抗体。在所有狐狸血清中均未检测到土拉菌抗体。
Free-ranging red foxes (V. fulva) and gray foxes (U. cinereoargenteus) were trapped in southwestern Wisconsin. Fox sera were tested to determine the prevalence of antibody for 5 different Leptospira interrogans serovars, canine distemper virus (CDV), infectious canine hepatitis virus (ICHV) and Franciscella tularensis infections L. grippotyphosa was the most prevalent leptospiral antibody observed; 25 of 53 (47%) red foxes and 11 of 36 (31%) gray foxes had specific antibodies to L. grippotyphosa. Juvenile foxes had geometric mean antibody titers to L. grippotyphosa significantly higher (P < 0.05) than those of the adults of both species. CDV antibody was detected in sera of red foxes only. Six of 57 (11%) red foxes had CDV antibody. ICHV antibody was detected in 2 of 57 (3%) red foxes and 3 of 32 (9%) gray foxes. Antibody of F. tularensis was not detected in any fox sera.
