Recolonizing gray wolves increase parasite infection risk in their prey

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 8, Issue 4, Page 2160-2170, February 2018., 2018
The recolonization of Central Europe by the gray wolf (Canis lupus) allows for the study of parasite transmission dynamics of the protozoan Sarcocystis, which uses wolves as definitive host and their prey as intermediate hosts, respectively. Our study indicates that wolves have returned as the apex predator of red deer (Cervus elaphus), resurrecting ...

Diagnosing limb paresis and paralysis in sheep

In Practice, Volume 37, Issue 10, Page 490-507, November 2015., 2015
Paresis and paralysis are uncommon problems in sheep but are likely to prompt farmers to seek veterinary advice. A thorough and logical approach can aid in determining the cause of the problem and highlighting the benefit of veterinary involvement. While this may not necessarily alter the prognosis for an individual animal, it can help in formulating ...

Sarcocystis falcatula infection in ringneck parakeets (Psittacula krameri) in Minas Gerais, Brazil

Brazilian Journal of Veterinary Pathology
Sarcocystis falcatula is an Apicomplexa protozoan parasite recognized for its pathogenicity in birds. This microorganism has a complex life cycle involving definitive hosts, such as marsupials from the Didelphidae family, and intermediate hosts, which ...

Wildlife health risk analysis for conservation translocation: A scalable approach illustrated for wader population restoration

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2025.
We present a methodological framework for health risk analysis (disease risk analysis) for conservation translocation that enables the process to be scaled and adapted to the project context. We illustrate its application to two wader (shorebird) population restoration projects with differing translocation plans.

A Review of Some Protozoan Parasites Causing Infertility in Farm Animals

International Scholarly Research Notices, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
The paper reviews some protozoan parasites responsible for infertility in livestock with specific emphasis on neosporosis, sarcocystosis, toxoplasmosis, and trichomoniasis. It highlights the transmission, pathogenesis, clinical signs, diagnosis, prevention, control, and treatment of the individual parasite.
