Abstract:The reindeer (Rangifer tarandus, Linnaeus, 1758) are semidomesticated animals in northern Mongolia. The main aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence of Eimeria spp. in semidomecticated reindeer in Mongolia. Assessments of eimeria parasitism among these reindeers were based on fecal examination and morphological identification of coccidian oocysts. Individual fecal samples collected from the reindeer were examined using modified Wisconsin and McMaster methods. Eimeria oocysts were detected in 57.37 % … Show more
