While intestinal microbiota composition affects pulmonary diseases in humans, its role in bovine tuberculosis remains unclear. This study explores the intestinal microbiota of cattle and its association with tuberculosis to better understand disease pathophysiology. A case-control study was conducted using small intestine content samples from cattle with and without tuberculosis, slaughtered in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. DNA extraction, <em>16S rRNA</em> (V4) sequencing, and bioinformatics analyses assessed alpha and beta diversity, taxa characterization, differential abundance, and metabolic pathways. No significant differences in alpha and beta diversities between the groups were detected. However, the <em>Bacillota</em>/<em>Bacteroidota</em> ratio suggested dysbiosis associated with bovine tuberculosis. Differential abundance analysis showed that microorganisms belonging to the <em>Bacillota</em> phylum, the <em>Eubacterium cellulosolvens</em> group, <em>Colidextribacter</em> and <em>Coprococcus</em> genera were enriched in healthy cattle. Conversely, animals with tuberculosis showed higher abundances of <em>Verrucomicrobiota</em> phylum, <em>Sphingomonadaceae</em> and <em>Eubacteriaceae</em> families, and <em>Solobacterium</em> and <em>Clostridia-UCG-014</em> genera. Moreover, metabolic pathways related to carbohydrate degradation were enriched in healthy animals, and biosynthetic pathways related to disease were enriched in tuberculosis animals.
