Abstract
Yellow fever is an extremely important zoonosis for public health in Brazil and worldwide. It is an infectious, non-contagious disease, caused by a virus and transmitted by the bite of vectors. There are two forms of the disease: sylvatic yellow fever and urban yellow fever. This study focused on evaluating the population's knowledge about this important zoonosis, and also to estimate the level of knowledge of veterinary medicine students compared to students of other higher education courses. In general, there is a discrepancy between the teachings, about the understanding of yellow fever, and there are still mistakes in the knowledge of the disease.
