Some Haematological Observations in Columba Livia Due to Haemoproteus Infection

Birds contribute indirectly to human welfare as majority of them feed on insects and rodents some are efficient scavengers. Poultry forming is a leading profession which provides nutritive food products for consumption. However, these valuable resources can be infected with wide range blood parasites may affect their survival existence. In this study, the impact Haemoproteus, an intracellular sporozoan parasite common pigeon. Columba livia heamatological parameters (Hb% TEC) was examined. The investigations were conducted in two groups livia. Group A: Control, B, Heamoproteus infected. Hb values (13.410.17gm/100ml) A decline (10.8±0.37 gm/100ml) B. TEC B also declined 1.620.05x106/Cmm from normal 2.19±0.02x10/Cmm A. fall Hb% 18.97%. that 24.2%. more affected (24.2 %) compared (18.97%). Being parasite, metabolism appears directly associated cells.
