Trypanosoma cervi from Alaskan Reindeer, Rangifer tarandus

Abstract: Twenty-nine (64.4%) of 45 reindeer, Rangifer tarandus, examined over a two-year period were infected with trypanosomes. Trypomastigotes and dividing epimastigotes were found in the blood of fawns, cows, and bulls. Morphometric analysis of bloodstream trypomastigotes from reindeer and comparison of these parasites with similar stages of trypanosomes from elk, mule deer, and white-tailed deer from the contiguous United States proved them conspecific; the trypanosomes from these members of the Cervidae are identi… Show more

“…In North American cervids, Megatrypanum trypanosomes have been reported in caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) [2,3], red deer (Cervus elaphus) [4], roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) [5][6][7], reindeer (Rangifer tarandus) [8], mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) [3,9], moose (Alces alces) [10], white-tailed deer (WTD) (Odocoileus virginianus) and elk (Cervus canadensis) [3,11,12]. In Europe, Megatrypanum trypanosomes have been described in fallow deer (Cervus dama), red deer and roe deer in Germany [6], reindeer and moose in Sweden [13], roe deer in Poland [14], and red deer in Croatia [15].…”
