“…Most intestinal worm parasites of deer and bison are closely related to those of other ruminants and occupy the same regions of the gastrointestinal tract as their equivalent species (8,23,32,33,37,52,74,91,100,125,146,152). The important genera of parasite that have been associated with clinical disease in bison and deer from several countries are members of the family Trichostrongylidae and include Ostertagia, Haemonchus and Spiculopteragia.…”

Malignant catarrhal fever IntroductionMalignant catarrhal fever (MCF) is the most important viral disease of farmed or ranched bison (Bison bison and Bison bonasus) and deer (7,9,16,20,28,53,80,118,128). The disease, as a clinical entity, is known on all continents and in most countries. At least three types of the virus have been implicated in the disease.The disease is caused by members of the gammaherpesviruses group. Alcelaphine herpesvirus-1 (AHV-1), carried asymptomatically by the wildebeest (Connochaetes taurinus) in Africa, has been diagnosed in disease outbreaks in zoos in North America. Ovine herpesvirus-2 (OHV-2) is carried asymptomatically by sheep (117). A third, as yet unnamed virus, has been detected in an outbreak of MCF in white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) (80).There are at least 25 herpesviruses serologically related to AHV-1 that have been detected in a variety of ruminants, but only AHV-1, OHV-2 and a new virus in white-tailed deer appear to be pathogenic (80,107,116,117). TransmissionOf the three pathogenic forms of the virus, AHV-1 from wildebeest (WA-MCF or wildebeest-associated MCF) is the best understood. Sheep-associated MCF (SA-MCF) occurs when sheep are maintained together with susceptible species. Ewes experience a recrudescence of infection in late pregnancy and

“…A variety of gastro-intestinal parasites, mostly from unpublished theses, were also grouped together ( Huaman et al, 2023 ). Low levels of infection with lungworms, all reported as Dictyocaulus viviparus , have been reported in red deer in Queensland ( McKenzie et al, 1985 ) and in fallow deer in Victoria ( Presidente, 1979 ), Tasmania ( Presidente, 1984 ) and New South Wales ( Mylrea et al, 1991 ).…”
