A bobcat (Felis rufus) estimated to be 6-mo old exhibited head pressing, stupor, intermittent
seizures
, and vocalization. Based on gross and histopathologic features, it was diagnosed to have severe focally extensive
protozoal meningoencephalitis
. Toxoplasma gondii was confirmed as the etiologic agent by an avidin-biotin immunohistochemical test. This is the first report of clinical toxoplasmosis in a free-ranging bobcat.

A red-bellied woodpecker (Melanerpes carolinus), clinically exhibiting intermittent
seizures
, was examined by the Southeastern Cooperative Wildlife Disease Study. Microscopically, the woodpecker had
protozoal meningoencephalitis
. Toxoplasma gondii was identified by immunohistochemistry and polymerase chain reaction. Sequence analysis of the SAG2 locus disclosed that the T gondii detected was the Type III genotype. This is apparently the first report of clinical neural toxoplasmosis in any species in the order Piciformes.
