Cryptococcus neoformans is an encapsulated yeast, which is a microscopic fungus commonly found in the environment. It lives primarily in bird droppings, but according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, it can also be found in soil, on decaying wood or in tree hollows.

C. neoformans infections are not contagious, but C. neoformans can be extremely harmful to those who are immunocompromised if the fungus enters their system.
