An opportunistic bacterial infection preceded by weather of unusually high humidity and temperature caused mass death saigas.
Current concerns over the potential impacts of climate change and increased movement between countries people companion animals on distribution ectoparasites, highlight need for accurate understanding existing prevalence patterns. Without these future changes will not be detected. Here, tick infestations domestic dogs in Great Britain were examined. A total 173 veterinary practices recruited to monitor attachment their local areas March October 2009. Practices selected five at random each...
SUMMARY Few studies have described the combined effect of age, gender, management and control programmes on helminth prevalence egg shedding in grazing equines. Here, fecal samples collected from 1221 Thoroughbred horses, residing at 22 studs UK, were analysed. The distribution strongyle eggs amongst individuals relation to gender practices was investigated. Fecal worm counts (FWECs), as number per gramme (epg) feces, determined using a modification salt flotation method. FWEC (mean%)...
Infections with parasitic helminths (nematodes and trematodes) represent a significant economic welfare burden to the global ruminant livestock industry. The increasing prevalence of anthelmintic resistance means that current control programmes are costly unsustainable in long term. Recent changes epidemiology, seasonality geographic distribution helminth infections have been attributed climate change. However, other environment (e.g., land use) farming, such as intensification altered...
