Fecal samples from 100 wild raccoons were examined for the presence of oocysts of Cryptosporidium parvum using a commercially available indirect immunofluorescent detection procedure. Thirteen (13%) of the samples were positive for oocysts. All positive samples were from juvenile raccoons. Over 61% of the infected samples contained moderate to large numbers of oocysts. Raccoons may serve as potential reservoirs for transmission of C. parvum.
