RESUMO
An adult female hyena and her two 4-month-old cubs were found to have multifocal areas of alopecia and dermatitis. Dermatophyte culture of hair and skin samples collected from the lesions yielded Trichophyton mentagrophytes. None of 10 other animals in the colony that were tested were found to have dermatophytes. Lesions were treated twice, at 3-week intervals, with thorough cleansing with chlorhexidine scrub followed by topical application of antifungal agents. Lesions resolved, and dermatophyte culture of samples collected 6 weeks after the initiation of treatment did not yield growth.
