Prevalence of Gastrointestinal Parasitic Infections in Captive Snakes, Bangladesh. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
This study documented gastrointestinal parasitic infections in captive venomous and non‐venomous snakes in Bangladesh for the first time, finding an overall prevalence of 39.1%, with helminths more common than protozoa. Non‐venomous snakes and juveniles were most susceptible, while controlled terrarium housing reduced risk, highlighting the need for ...
