Dissertation note: Thesis (M.Sc.) - Cairo University - Faculty of Veterinary Medicine - Department of Microbiology Summary: Campylobacter is the most common bacterial cause of human gastroenteritis in many countries. In this study bacteriological examination of a total of one hundred and fifty samples (102 feces, 36 water and 12 food samples) were collected from apparently healthy ostriches from different farms and zoo to identify Campylobacter species. The results revealed that Campylobacter species could be detected with an incidence of 24.67%. It was clear that the highest isolation of Campylobacter species was 36.11% in water samples followed by food samples (25%) then fecal samples (20.59%). Zoo water samples had the highest isolation ratio (57.14%), followed by private farms (31.25%) and it couldn{u2019}t be detected in the governmental farms. The presented study elucidated that the Campylobacter jejuni (18%) and Campylobacter coli (6.67%) were identified. From the results it is cleared that a higher incidence rate of Campylobacter species was obtained during the warmer seasons than the cold one
