Two cases of cerebral coeneurosis in chamois (Rupicapra pyrenaica) from Catalonia (northeastern Spain) are described. This disease, of which few cases have been reported, may, in fact, be relatively frequent. Although the characteristic symptom of the disease in sheep is circling, that symptom was not observed in this study. Chamois may act as a host within the sheep-shepherd-dog cycle, but is probable that red fox (Vulpes vulpes) also acts as a definitive host.
