<p>Bovine Leptospirosis is a disease caused by spirochetes of the genus Leptospira spp., being the L. interrogans, serovar hardjo the most important agent in bovines, since it is related to reproductive problems such as abortion, withholding of placenta, mummifications and stillbirths that affect productivity in the herd. The infection affects reservoirs (rodents), accidental hosts (bovines, equines, pigs, canines, and felines), and humans. According to WHO and OIE, it is the most widespread zoonosis in the world and the most interesting in public health. Its non-specific mode involves febrile pictures and in some cases, the animals recover spontaneously. Colombia, due to its geography and changes in climatic patterns (rains, floods), offers the ideal conditions for the subsistence of the bacteria; however, its diagnosis through the MAT (microscopic agglutination test) is complex. The highest prevalence of the disease in bovines is found in Antioquia (69.9%) in cows with reproductive backgrounds. Even though there are vaccines in the country, it is necessary to study the predominant serovars in some areas in order to produce and use specific vaccines, as well as epidemiological studies to identify the dynamics of the disease in the environment. The occupation or profession is a risk factor, so promoting campaigns of knowledge and prevention of the disease among bovine farmers, veterinarians, managers and other people close to the bovines, become necessary. The objective of this article is to carry out an updated bibliographic review on bovine leptospirosis.</p>
