Abstract: Different studies have reported the prevalence and antibiotic resistance of Salmonella in dromedaries’ camels and its role in camelid-associated salmonellosis in humans, but little is known about the epidemiology of Campylobacter in dromedaries. Here we investigate the prevalence, genetic diversity and antibiotic resistance of Campylobacter and Salmonella in dromedary camels (Camelus dromedarius). A total of 54 individuals were sampled from two unique dromedary farms located in Tenerife (Canary Islands, Spain). Whilst all the samples were Campylobacter-negative, Salmonella prevalence was 5.5% (3/54) and the only serovar isolated was S. Frintrop. The pulsed field gel electrophoresis analysis revealed a low genetic diversity, with all isolates showing a nearly identical pulsotype (similarity > 95%). Our results indicate that dromedaries’ camels could not be a risk factor for Campylobacter human infection, but seems to be a reservoir for Salmonella transmission. Since camel ride has become one of the main touristic attractions in several countries and its popularity has considerably risen in the last years, a mandatory control, especially for zoonotic pathogens, such as Campylobacter and Salmonella should be implemented.
