Infecciones parasitarias del coyote, Canis latrans (Carnivora: Canidae) en un Parque Nacional y una zona agrícola en Costa Rica

Wildlife parasitology: sample collection and processing, diagnostic constraints, and methodological challenges in terrestrial carnivores

“…Usually, spurious parasitism is suspected when observing egg or oocyst species unusual in the studied carnivore and results from the ingestion of infected tissues or feces and the passing of their eggs or oocysts through the gastrointestinal tract [ 71 ]. Examples are the observation of rodent-associated Hymenolepis diminuta eggs in coyotes from Costa Rica [ 72 ], Habronema sp., Schistosoma sp., Eimeria felina , and Macracanthorhynchus hirudinaceus eggs in African lions ( Panthera leo ) from Tanzania [ 71 ], Dicrocoelium dendriticum and Trichuris sp. eggs in brown bears from Spain [ 57 ], lagomorph strongylid Protostrongylus pulmonaris originating from preys were observed in Eurasian lynx ( Lynx lynx ) from Germany [ 73 ].…”

El Laboratorio De Investigación Y Su Aporte en Favor De La Biodiversidad Costarricense

“…Como parte de una tesis de maestría de la estudiante Carmen Niehaus se tuvo oportunidad de analizar muestras de heces de coyotes (Canis latrans) de la región cercana al Volcán Irazú, encontrándose varios parásitos intestinales, algunos de los cuales pueden, eventualmente infectar al ser humano, al menos como un parasitismo extraviado (Caso de Toxocara sp.) (Niehaus et al 2012). También se encontraron en estos animales protozoarios de los géneros Cryptosporidium y Cyclospora asociados en los humanos con problemas de inmunosupresión (Niehaus et…”

The severely under‐recognized public health risk of strongyloidiasis in North American cities—A One Health approach

“…Changes in populations of urban wildlife potentially impact environmental loads of STHs. There are numerous urban and suburban wildlife mammalian species that carry Strongyloides species (Borgsteede, ; Emlen, ; Forman, ; Forrester, Taylor, & Humphrey, ; Franssen et al, ; Hadidian, Manski, & Riley, ; Little, ; McShea, ; Miterpáková, Hurníková, Antolová, & Dubinský, ; Niehaus, Valerio, Blanco, & Chinchilla, ; Popiołek, Szczęsna, Nowak, & Mysłajek, ; Sato, Suzuki, Osanai, Kamiya, & Furuoka, ; Simõesa et al., ; White & Gehrt, ). Strongyloides stercoralis represents the largest public health threat, but some of the other Strongyloides species carried by other species of wildlife can cause transient skin and gastrointestinal infections.…”
