Diversity of Parasitism in Bovines in the Republic of Moldova

The aim of this research was to study diversity of parasitism in bovines grazing inthe meadow and steppes ecosystems of the Republic of Moldova.The results of parasitological laboratory and anatomical-clinical investigations revealed thatbovines grazing in the floodplains and steppes plans, specific to the northern region of Moldova wereinfested in 52,5% of cases with F. hepatica, in 35% of cases - with Dicrocoelium lanceolatum, in 24%- with Paraphistomum cervi, in 70% - with Echinococus granulosus larvae, - in 62,0% - withNeoascaris vitulorum in 58,5% - with Strongiloides papillosus and 41,5% of cases - with Eimeriaspp.The study of cattle parasites revealed a high level of parasitic diseases due to irregular treatmentor the absence of it and also due to changes in the agriculture and forestry systems: the privatizationand the creation of little farms or small scale rearing of animals. All these promote the contact betweendomestic and wild animals and aid in the transmission of parasites and diseases from one animal toanother.The measures for limiting the pollution with parasitic elements of ecosystems are achievable byactions of hygienization and by creating conditions of biological comfort. The principles as well as themultitude of actions imposed have to be conceived differentially, adequately to certain conditions ofthe various ecosystems.
