The investigations based on examination of the internal organs of 25 wild cats of the Harz population died from different causes in the period from 1982 to 1989. 22 animals (= 88%) were positive for parasites. The following species were found: Hydatigera taeniaeformis, Taenia crassiceps, T. martis larv. (spurious parasite), Mesocestoides litteratus, Capillaria plica, Capillaria sp. (aerophila?), Toxocara mystax, Cystoisopora felis. Toxocara mystax and Hydatigera taeniaeformis were the most often diagnosed helminths. Their number ranged up to 247 and 30 specimen respectively. The stated parasite fauna is comparable with findings in run wild domestic cats in rural areas. Voles contained in the stomach content of most of the cats play a role in the epizootiology of wild cat endoparasites.
对1982年至1989年期间因不同原因死亡的25只哈尔茨地区野生猫的内脏进行检查。22只动物（占88%）寄生虫检测呈阳性。发现的寄生虫种类如下：泡状带绦虫、肥胖带绦虫、马氏绦虫幼虫（假寄生虫）、中殖孔绦虫、狐膀胱毛细线虫、毛细线虫属（嗜气毛细线虫？）、猫鼻弓首线虫、猫等孢球虫。猫鼻弓首线虫和泡状带绦虫是最常被诊断出的蠕虫。其数量分别多达247条和30条。上述寄生虫群落与农村地区流浪家猫的检查结果相当。大多数猫胃内容物中的田鼠在野生猫体内寄生虫的流行病学中起作用。
