The exponential decline of great apes over the past 50 years has resulted in an urgent need for data to inform population viability assessment and conservation strategies. Health monitoring of remaining ape populations is an important component of this process. In support of this effort, we examined endoparasitic and commensal prevalence and richness as proxies of population health for western ...

A growing number of enteric protozoan species are considered to have zoonotic potential. Their clinical impact varies and in many cases is poorly defined. Similarly, the epidemiology of infections, particularly the role of non-human hosts, requires further study. In this review, new information on the life cycles and transmission of Giardia, Cryptosporidium, Entamoeba, Blastocystis and Balantid...

Protozoan and nematode infections of Periplaneta americana in Bulgaria were investigated. Five protozoan and 2 nematode parasites of P. americana were recorded: Endamoeba blattae, Amoeba sp., Lophomonas striata, Nyctotherus ovalis, Balantidium blattarum, Hammerschmidtiella diesingi and Leidynema appendiculatum. Parasite prevalence varied from 1,6% for Amoeba sp. to 32,8% for nematodes. Biometri...

Wild animals particularly non human primates are the potential sources of bacterial, viral and parasitic zoonoses. Primates share parasites, Entamoeba sp., Giardia sp., Ascaris sp., Strongyloides sp., etc morphologically similar to human beings, although most of these parasites need to verify genetically. Some of the viral diseases have already been proved to be transmissible from non human pri...
