Mycobacterium caprae is a species of bacteria in the genus Mycobacterium and a member of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex. Prior to 2003, the species was referred to as Mycobacterium tuberculosis subsp. caprae.[1] It is also synonymous with the name Mycobacterium bovis subsp. caprae.

M. caprae is a causative agent of tuberculosis in humans.[2][3] The species has also been isolated from tuberculous lesions in cattle, pigs, deer, and wild boars,[4] as well as from camels and bison.[5]
