“…In addition to domestic felines, A. abstrusus infections are also reported in several wildlife species acting as definitive hosts, such as jaguarondis ( Puma yagouaroundi ) and Geoffroy’s cat ( Leopardus geoffroyi ), [ 89 ], margay ( L. wiedii ), oncilla ( L. tigrinus ) [ 15 ] and Colo colo wildcats ( L. colocolo ) [ 75 ]. Moreover, infected gastropod intermediate hosts have been reported in Brazil [ 90 ] and Argentina [ 24 , 91 ] (see Table 2 ).…”

“…Вивчення гельмінтологічної ситуації зоопарків є актуальним з огляду на можливість дослідження екзотичних тварин, що перебувають на обмеженій території, та отримання колекційних екземплярів гельмінтів, не притаманних фауністичному складу свійських тварин (Kharchenko and Marunchin, 1992;Eo et al, 2014;Kyung-Yeon et al, 2014;Gressler et al, 2016;Seguel and Gottdenker, 2017).…”
