Leptospira spp. infection have been documented in several species of amphibians and reptiles, even though it is not clear if these animals act as maintenance hosts or they develop symptomatology and lesions. However, poikilothermic animals, shedding leptospires in their urine, represent a source of infection for warm-blooded animals including humans.
