is a world widely distributed parasite which comparatively has a high prevalence in developing countries. The zoonotic potential of some species has made the cryptosporidiosis a significant concern to physicians and veterinarians. The occurrence and zoonotic potential of species in probable reservoir hosts for man infections was determined by examining faeces of symptomatic and asymptomatic animals. The aim of this study is to screen the presence of in fecal sample of free ranging animals in Tehran using Ziehl-Neelsen staining method. The findings indicate that are present in 9/50 (18 %) stray cat (), 12/50 (24 %) hooded crows (), 23/180 (12.7 %) rat ( and ) and 1/40 (2.5 %) pigeons (). This investigation confirms the potential role of rats, cats, crows and pigeons for zoonotic transmission of human cryptosporidiosis and they must be considered as reservoir hosts which can endanger public health.
是一种在世界范围内广泛分布的寄生虫，在发展中国家的患病率相对较高。某些物种的人畜共患病潜力使隐孢子虫病成为医生和兽医关注的重点。通过检查有症状和无症状动物的粪便，确定了人类感染可能的储存宿主中物种的发生情况和人畜共患病潜力。本研究的目的是使用齐-尼氏染色法筛查德黑兰自由放养动物粪便样本中是否存在。研究结果表明，在9/50（18%）的流浪猫（）、12/50（24%）的 hooded crows（）、23/180（12.7%）的大鼠（和）以及1/40（2.5%）的鸽子（）中存在。这项调查证实了大鼠、猫、乌鸦和鸽子在人类隐孢子虫病的人畜共患传播中的潜在作用，它们必须被视为可能危害公众健康的储存宿主。 （注：原文中部分物种名称未准确翻译，可能是特定专业术语，需结合专业知识准确理解。）
