The aim of the study was to determine the prevalence and intensity of gastrointestinal parasites in horses from various management systems. The study included 296 horses of different breeds and ages (from 6 months to 20 years), of both sexes, coming from various management systems: group 1 – horses using natural pastures, group 2 – horses pastured on field pastures created by man, group 3 – horses using sand areas. Faeces samples were collected directly from the rectum 1–2 days before worming. Each sample was examined macro- and microscopically (McMaster method). The number of oocysts/eggs per gram of faeces (OPG/EPG) and parasite abundance (average representation of parasites in relation to all animals). The results were subjected to statistical analysis using the Kruskal-Wallis test. Total prevalence of parasites in all groups was 66.89%: E. leucarti 0.68%; Anoplocephalidae 4.73%, P.equorum 9.46% and Strongylidae 64.19%. Total prevalence per group was the following: 1 – 57.43%; 2 – 26.69%; 3 – 6.38%. In all management systems, the dominating parasites belonged to Cyathostominae (group 1 – 77.65%, group 2 – 70.89%, group 3 – 4.25%). The prevalences of P. equorum, Anoplocephalidae, E. leucarti in each group were as follows: group 1 – 10.59; 3.53; 0.59%; group 2 – 11.39; 10.13; 1.27%; group 3 – 2.13; 0; 0%.The average intensities of Strongylildae, P. equorum, Anaplocephalidae and E. leucarti in groups were as follows: group 1 – 606.44; 519.44; 50; 50; group 2 – 472.32; 261.11; 62.5; 50; group 3 – 1150; 450; 0; 0. On the other hand, the average abundances in each group were the following: group 1 – 473.67; 55; 1.76; 0.29; group 2 – 334.81; 29.75; 6.33; 0.63; group 3 – 48.94; 9.57; 0; 0. The statistical analysis did not reveal statistically significant differences between the management system and invasion intensity. However, the analysis, taking into consideration a correlation between the management system and abundance, revealed statistically significant differences. The differences were observed between groups 1 and 3 (pi = 0.0000001) and between groups 2 and 3 (pi = 0.0000001).
The aim of the study was to analyze endoparasitic fauna in roe deer of a selected area of south-western Poland using coproscopic studies and postmortem studies of internal organs (lungs, livers and digestive tracts). Microscopic methods included flotation and the McMaster method. In May and June 2015, 53 culled male roe deer were examined. Parasites were found in 96.2% (n = 51, SD = 19.2) of the studied animals, but the invasion intensity was diversified. From 1 to 7 different taxa (families or genera) of parasites were found in each studied animal. Oocysts of Eimeria (3 species (E. capreoli, E. panda, E. rotunda) were found with the following invasion prevalence: 45.28%, low OPG level, in the range of 350-700. In three samples, the OPG amounted to 2800- -4500. Cysts of Buxtonella sulcata 9.4% (CPG in the range of 300-100). Fasciola hepatica (prevalence 3.77%), intensity: 2-3 specimens, Dicrocoelium dendriticum (5.66%), intensity: 2-5 specimens. Moniezia expansa (7.54%), intensity: 3-8 tapeworms. Nematodes from the family Trichostrongylidae (58.49%, genera: Ostertagia, Spiculopteragia, Haemonchus, Trichostrongylus and Nematodiurus from the family Molineidae), low invasion intensity (8-55 nematodes), only in 7 deer intensities of 346-140 nematodes). Capillaria bovis (7.54%) intensity ranging from 2 to 14 nematodes. Oesophagostomum venulosum (15.09%) invasion intensity: 7-23 nematodes, Trichuris globulosa (9.43%), invasion intensity 2-4 nematodes. Dictyocaulus eckerti (11.32%), invasion intensity ranging from 6 to 34 nematodes. Setaria tundra (5.66%) invasion intensity ranging from 1 to 3 nematodes.
The aim of the study was to investigate the state of parasitic invasions in flocks of carrier and fancy pigeons in south-western Poland. Coproscopic methods (flotation with saturated NaCl and saccharose, as well as the McMaster method) were used to examine 42 pigeon flocks (18 flocks of fancy pigeons and 24 flocks of carrier pigeons). A total of 210 faeces samples were tested. Prevalence was determined, and average intensity and abundance of gastrointestinal parasites were estimated on the basis of OPG/EPG. Dispersive forms of parasites were found in 78.6% flocks (88.8% of fancy pigeons and 70.8% of carrier pigeons). In the flocks of fancy pigeons most invasions were of mixed character, with statistically significantly high indices of prevalence and abundance. In carrier pigeon flocks, monoinvasions with significantly higher indices of average intensity prevailed, which indicates a high risk of invasion in this group of birds. Eimeriosis was found to be the dominating invasion, occurring in 59.5% of all samples, carrier pigeons – 45.4%, fancy pigeons – 77.7% (59.5% of the flocks), average OPG – 12280, abundance – 7309. Capillariasis: in total – 49% samples, carrier pigeons – 35.8%, fancy pigeons – 66.6% (52.4% of the flocks), average EPG – 3216, abundance – 1577. Ascariasis: in total – 24.3% samples, carrier pigeons – 12.5%, fancy pigeons – 40% (28.6% of the flocks), average EPG – 1953, abundance – 474. Eggs of nematodes belonging to Ornithostrongylus were found in 4.2% of the samples in total: carrier pigeons – 3.3%, fancy pigeons – 5.5% (4.8% of the flocks), average EPG – 488, abundance – 20. Tapeworm eggs were found in 6.2% samples in total, carrier pigeons – 2.5%, fancy pigeons – 11.1% (9.5% of the flocks), average EPG – 607, abundance – 37. The correlation analysis showed relationships between the prevalence and diarrhoea only in the case of tapeworm invasion, no relationship between diarrhoea and the mere fact of infection were found in other invasions. However, a significant correlation was found between the average OPG/EPG of diagnosed parasites (especially Eimeria, Capillaria and Ascaridia) and the observed diarrhoea symptoms.
The aim of the study was to determine the degree of parasitic invasion at various physiological stages, as well as tracing the dynamics of parasitic invasions in a flock of sheep kept in the combined indoor-pasture management system. The observations were performed on 224 mother ewes of the synthetic SCP prolific meat line over the course of two years. The animals were kept in the combined indoor-pasture management system with uniform feeding and environmental conditions and were under continuous animal husbandry and veterinary supervision. The ewes participating in the experiment were not wormed in the year preceding the experiment and during the observations. The experiment involved parasitologic tests aimed at the determination of abundance and prevalence of invasions of gastrointestinal parasites in mother ewes. The study material was faeces collected from the rectum in the following stages: pregnancy (November), day 2, 28, 42 and 56 after lambing, drying off (day 100 after lambing) and rest (between dry-off and mating). In the analysis of the results of the study it can be noted that, in most cases, the highest prevalence and abundance levels are observed in the infertility period. Moreover, the period of pregnancy and lambing was a crucial one. On the other hand, the lowest abundance and prevalence levels in the majority of cases were observed on day 28 and 42 after lambing. The results of the study should be taken into consideration during the development of prevention strategies limiting parasitic invasions in sheep flocks. Adjusting chemotherapy to the most important periods of parasitic invasions will enable a more efficient fight against parasites. It should also reduce the excessive use of chemical preparations, which is crucial due to the increasing resistance of parasites. Apart from the aforementioned actions, farmers should pay attention to supporting immunity by means of feed, especially in the periods of highest vulnerability to invasions. Such actions should lead to the reduction of losses caused by parasitic invasions in sheep flocks.
