Given the importance of carnivorous mammals in biodiversity conservation, this study aimed to carry out an analysis of the scientific production on the diseases that affect this group of animals in the Brazilian fauna. The method used was a scientometric review of articles published on the subject from 1969 to september 2021. The survey resulted in 263 works published in national and international journals, available in the Scopus database. The analysis of the articles allowed us to identify that publications on diseases in wild carnivores in Brazil have increased over the years, and that a large part of this scientific production is concentrated in the Southeast and South regions of the country. Infectious and parasitic diseases were the main subject of interest to researchers, with emphasis on studies on zoonoses. This work contributes to the understanding of how this theme has been researched in the country in the last decades and allows future research to be directed.
