Abstract
A 9-year-old Inuit boy with brucellosis is presented. The most likely source of his infection was contaminated caribou meat. Brucella suis is enzootic in Canadian caribou herds and this case indicates that natives of the Arctic are a risk group for acquiring brucellosis through the ingestion of raw caribou meat.Entities:
