The aim of this study was to describe parasites of three lynx living in an enclosure of Western Pomeranian Nature Society in Jablonowo. During analysis of 3 gram faecal samples eggs of Toxascaris leonina, Toxocara cati, Ancylostoma sp. and oocysts of Cystoisospora felis were found. To our knowledge this is the first report of C. felis infection in lynx from Poland. Presented research show that wild cats in captivity are particularly exposed on parasitic infections and demand regular examination.
本研究的目的是描述生活在雅布沃诺的西波美拉尼亚自然协会围栏内的三只猞猁身上的寄生虫。在对3克粪便样本进行分析时,发现了狮弓蛔虫、猫弓首蛔虫、钩口线虫属的虫卵以及猫等孢球虫的卵囊。据我们所知,这是波兰猞猁感染猫等孢球虫的首次报告。目前的研究表明,圈养的野猫特别容易受到寄生虫感染,需要定期检查。
