Carnivore carcasses on the roads can be regarded as study materials in parasitology and eco-epidemiology. Stray carnivores such as dogs and cats are known to harbor so many different pathogens like zoonotic helminthes. The current investigation, apparent the status of the helminthic parasites found in road killed carnivores from different parts of Guilan Province north of Iran.
Fifty road killed carnivores including 27 stray dogs (), 11 golden jackals () and 12 stray cats () were collected from 21 locations of Guilan Province, during Apr to Nov 2015. Internal organs of the carcasses, including digestive tract, heart, kidneys, lungs, liver, skin, eyes as well as muscles were carefully inspected and sampled for helminthological investigation.
About 80% of the 50 carnivores, (stray dogs 77.77%, golden jackals 81.81%, and stray cats 91.66%) were found naturally infected with helminthic parasites. , , , , , , , , , , Mesocestoides spp hydatigena, , spp. spp. are reported herein.
The prevalent occurrence of zoonotic helminthes such as , , , , and in stray carnivores should be considered as a public health hazard, specifically within a vast tourism area like Guilan Province.
道路上的食肉动物尸体可被视为寄生虫学和生态流行病学的研究材料。已知流浪食肉动物如狗和猫携带许多不同的病原体，如人畜共患蠕虫。当前的调查揭示了伊朗北部吉兰省不同地区道路上死亡的食肉动物体内发现的蠕虫寄生虫状况。
2015年4月至11月期间，从吉兰省的21个地点收集了50只道路上死亡的食肉动物，包括27只流浪狗、11只金豺和12只流浪猫。对尸体的内脏，包括消化道、心脏、肾脏、肺、肝脏、皮肤、眼睛以及肌肉进行仔细检查，并取样进行蠕虫学调查。
在50只食肉动物中，约80%（流浪狗77.77%、金豺81.81%、流浪猫91.66%）被发现自然感染了蠕虫寄生虫。本文报告了犬复孔绦虫、泡状带绦虫、中殖孔绦虫、多头蚴、棘球蚴、细粒棘球绦虫、多房棘球绦虫、微小膜壳绦虫、缩小膜壳绦虫、西里伯瑞列绦虫、中绦虫属、多头绦虫属等。
流浪食肉动物中普遍存在人畜共患蠕虫，如犬复孔绦虫、泡状带绦虫、中殖孔绦虫、多头蚴、棘球蚴、细粒棘球绦虫等，应被视为公共卫生危害，特别是在像吉兰省这样的广大旅游地区。
