Isolation and Characterization of Campylobacter jejuni subsp. jejuni from Macaroni Penguins (Eudyptes chrysolophus) in the Subantarctic Region

On Bird Island, South Georgia, albatrosses (n = 140), penguins (n = 100), and fur seals (n = 206) were sampled for Campylobacter jejuni. C. jejuni subsp. jejuni was recovered from three macaroni penguins (Eudyptes chrysolophus). These isolates, the first reported for the subantarctic region, showed...
