- Abstract
The aim of this research was to study diversity of parasitism in bovines grazing in the meadow and steppes ecosystems of the Republic of Moldova. The results of parasitological laboratory and anatomical-clinical investigations revealed that bovines grazing in the floodplains and steppes plans, specific to the northern region of Moldova were infested in 52,5% of cases with F. hepatica, in 35% of cases - with Dicrocoelium lanceolatum, in 24% - with Paraphistomum cervi, in 70% - with Echinococus granulosus larvae, - in 62,0% - with Neoascaris vitulorum in 58,5% - with Strongiloides papillosum and 41,5% of cases - with Eimeria spp. The study of cattle parasites revealed a high level of parasitic diseases due to irregular treatment or the absence of it and also due to changes in the agriculture and forestry systems: the privatization and the creation of little farms or small scale rearing of animals. All these promote the contact between domestic and wild animals and aid in the transmission of parasites and diseases from one animal to another.The measures for limiting the pollution with parasitic elements of ecosystems are achievable by actions of hygienization and by creating conditions of biological comfort. The principles as well as the multitude of actions imposed have to be conceived differentially, adequately to certain conditions of the various ecosystems.
