“…The pathogenicity of parasites can be decreased by strengthening livestock resistance (Kurniawati et al, 2020). Both the specific and non-specific immune systems are involved in the host immunological reaction to parasite infection (Van Hoy et al, 2022). The mucus lining of the digestive tract is the young swamp buffalo's first line of defense against endoparasite invasion.…”

This study aimed to identify the prevalence of gastrointestinal endoparasite infections in swamp buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) in Polewali Mandar. This study was used 80 samples of buffalo feces taken from community farms in the three districts with the largest population in Polewali Mandar i.e., Tinambung, Luyo and Campalagian. The data obtained were analyzed descriptively. The results of the examination of 80 samples of buffalo feces in this study found 48 (60%) positive samples infected with gastrointestinal endoparasites. After microscopic identification, the following types of endoparasites were found with their respective prevalence levels: worms of the nematode class consisted of Strongyloides sp. (8,75%), Toxocara sp. (13,75%), Ascaris sp. (7,5%), Bunostomum sp. (11,25%), Haemonchus sp. (17,5%), Trichostrongylus sp. (36,25%), the cestode class consisted of Moniezia sp. (18,75%) and Taenia sp. (10%), Trematode class Paramphistomum sp. (13,75%). The types of protozoa found were Eimeria sp. (46,25%) and Entamoeba sp. (6,25%).

“…It is a brownish fly about the size of a honeybee that deposits its first-stage larvae in the nostrils of sheep in most areas of the world. Microscopic larvae mature into large bots (maggots) (Van Hoy et al, 2022). which spend most of their larval stages in nasal passages and sinuses, causing irritation, inflammation, and obstruction of airways the airway obstruction are the main causes of death a chronic or recurrent rash of numerous very itchy nasal cavity sheep and goat (Warrell, 2020).…”

This study was carried out to investigate the prevalence of larval stage Oestrus ovis conducted during the period from September 2023 to the end of March 2024 at Babylon city, Iraq. 250 goats firstly were examined grossly and postmortem by longitudinally cutting with a manual saw, secondly, the collected larvae (45) were examined microscopically to measure its length and overall morphology. The total infestation rate was 26% (65/250). The highest rate of infestation was in female which was 44/150 (29.3%) while in male the infestation rate was 21/100(21%). The rate of infestation increases with the progression age of animal, older adult (over three years) was more susceptible to infestation was recorded 30/85(35.3%), while 17% (14/80) were in ages less than one year. Therefore, it showed a highly significant difference at (P<0.01). Furthermore, the histopathological sections of nasal cavity showed that Numerous mucous glands, thickening of epithelium, hyperplasia of blood vessels and severe Infiltration of inflammatory in goat infected with O.ovis larvae. In contrast, the uninfected goat showed moderate inflammatory cell infiltration in mucosal layer of nasal cavity and several dense glandular aggregates encircled by a dense network of elastic fibers. In conclusion, this study shows the important of O. ovis that infect goat in Babylon city, Iraq. Moreover, the morphology of all larval stage is similar except their measurement, color, and the shape of respiratory spiracles.
