Effects of age, sex, lactation and social dominance on faecal egg count patterns of gastrointestinal nematodes in farmed eland (Taurotragus oryx)

Original language description

Faecal samples from an entire herd of elands, including calves and adult femalesand males, were examined monthly over a one year period. Almost 84% of the animals were found to bepositive for gastrointestinal nematodes. Strongyle-type eggs were most frequently detected (prevalence75%), followed by Capillaria sp., Nematodirus sp. and Trichuris sp. eggs. Following culturing eggs to infec-tive larvae, Teladorsagia sp., Trichostrongylus sp., Nematodirus sp., Cooperia sp. and Oesophagostomum sp.were identified. Following necropsy of two calves that died during the study one abomasal nematode(Teladorsagia circumcincta), five small intestinal nematode species (Nematodirus helvetianus, N. spathiger,Cooperia oncophora, C. curticei and Capillaria bovis) and twolarge intestinal nematodes (Oesophagostomumvenulosum and Trichuris ovis) were recovered. From these findings, it is evident that the eland harboursnematodes that are typical for domestic cattle and small ruminants. Morphological and morph
