Examination of Some Endoparasites Prevalence in Romanov Sheep Imported from Ukraine

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate some endoparasites spread in the Romanov sheep imported from Ukraine. The flotation, sedimentation and Baerman-Wetzel techniques were used to analyze the fecal samples collected from the sheep (n=156) and the samples were examined under the light microscope. Furthermore, from this herd, the internal organs of the sheep that had died were pathologically examined on macroscopic and microscopic level. Among fecal samples examined 69 (44.23%) were found parasitically positive, 66 of these (42.3%) were found positive for Dicrocoelium dentriticum, 3 samples (1.92%) were positive for Nematodirus spp. and Eimeria spp, while Giardia spp. was not detected. The pathological examination of the internal organs of eight of these sheep revealed adult forms of D. dendriticum only in the liver. The parasitological and pathological findings of this study indicated a high incidence of D. dendriticum that causes economic losses due to cases of death, in the Romanov sheep, which has been imported to country in large numbers in recent years.
