The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of toxoplasmosis, listeriosis and brucellosis in goitered gazelles (Gazella subgutturosa) in Sanliurfa region, Turkey. A total of 82 sera were collected from healthy gazelles and tested for listeriosis, brucellosis and toxoplasmosis by the Osebold Agglutination Test (OAT), Serum Agglutination Test (SAT) and Sabin-Feldman Dye Test (SFDT), respectively. 82 gazelles 5 (6.09%) were seropositive for listeriosis, 23 (28.04 %) for toxoplasmosis and all of them were seronegative for brucellosis. No statistically significant differences were observed between male and female gazelles in the seroprevalences of toxoplasmosis and listeriosis. As a result, the presence of anti-Toxoplasma gondii and Listeria spp. specific antibodies in G. subgutturosa in the region of Sanliurfa was determined.
