Fluoroquinolone-resistant  Escherichia coli  ( E. coli ) from faecal matter of non-human primates (NHP) and their carriage of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance genes were investigated in this study. Faecal samples were collected from six accredited zoological and tourism gardens in South-western and Northern Nigeria. Five fluoroquinolone-resistant  E. coli  were obtained from the 43 NHP sampled. Three of the isolates were from Agodi gardens, Ibadan, and one each from Osun Osogbo grove and University of Ibadan Zoological garden. The isolates were from Green monkeys (3), Mona Monkey (1) and Anubis baboon (1). They showed varying antibiotic resistance levels, with 100% resistance observed only towards sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim. None of the isolates was positive for ESBL production. All the isolates carried  qnrD , with three each carrying  qnrA  and  qnrS . Only one isolate carried  qnrB . The carriage of  qnr  genes by captive animals could portend serious public health risks.
