“…Our results are similar to those obtained by Iannacone et al (2001) on stray dogs Canis familiaris L. from Brazil in that the three helminth species found in Brazilian stray dogs were also found parasitizing Spanish wolves. However, in this study a similar prevalence was found for all of them.…”

“…However, in this study a similar prevalence was found for all of them. Distribution data agree with those of Iannacone et al (2001) for Dipylidium caninum and Toxocara canis, although the ascarid shows a slightly more posterior distribution in Spanish wolves. This difference may be due to the presence in the community of the trematode Alaria alata, which always occupied the first intestinal section.…”

“…En el presente estudio no se consideró la frecuencia de cada especie parasitaria en relación con la condición corporal pero es evidente que estas infecciones producen trastornos gastrointestinales (irritación de la mucosa, mala absorción, diarrea, vómito y anemia, en el caso de A. caninum) que, unidos al tiempo de infección, inducen un descenso del consumo de alimento, lo que genera la movilización de las reservas del hospedero, y produce debilidad y disminución de la condición corporal (16,27).…”

“…La exposición humana resulta de la elevada prevalencia de Toxocara canis Werner, 1782 en los perros y del gran número de animales que comparten el ambiente con los seres humanos (Schantz & Glickman, 1983;Iannacone et al, 2001;Castillo-Cuenca et al, 2016). Las especies del género Toxocara pertenecen al grupo de los geohelmintos, cuyas formas infectantes se desarrollan en el suelo.…”
