Macroscopic lesions in lung and spleen of a juvenile male vervet monkey (Chlorocebus pygerythrus), that was euthanized in 2024 from the Skukuza tourist camp in Greater Kruger Conservation Area, South Africa. Lesions were similar to other tuberculosis cases in vervet monkeys in this area, associated with Mycobacterium bovis infection. Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex DNA was detected in this case using qPCR (Cepheid Xpert MTB/RIF Ultra qPCR assay).
