Coproscopic examinations of mouflons Ovis aries musimon from four forest districts of Lower Silesia performed in spring and autumn from 2012 to 2014 demonstrated the presence of pulmonary nematodes and intestinal parasites, including coccidia of the genus Eimeria. Prevalence of pulmonary nematodes (mainly Muellerius capillaris) amounted to 69.78%, intestinal nematodes – 56.11% and coccidia of the genus Eimeria – 44.6%. The number of oocysts, eggs of intestinal helminths and larvae of pulmonary nematodes was low. Most frequently the parasites occurred in mouflons from the Jugów forest district, which is related to contact with sheep grazed in the area.
