A serological survey for Brucella antibodies in sheep and goats was completed on Saint Croix, United States Virgin Islands (USVI). Seroprevalence (at suspect or reactor titer levels) for B. melitensis antibodies was 11.3% for sheep and 2.5% for goats. This is the first report, of which we are aware, of B. melitensis antibodies in sheep or goats in the Caribbean islands.
