Journal Title: Journal of Research in Biology - Year 2012, Vol 2, Issue 3

Abstract

A survey on the prevalence of gastro-intestinal tract (GIT) parasites in 20 black Bengal goats (Capra hircus) of 18 months of age was conducted in Sylhet Govt. Goat Development Farm, Bangladesh during the period of February to May of 2011. Irrespective to sex, using McMaster method for egg per gram of feces (EPG) disclose that the percentage of Haemonchus contortus, Strongyloides papillosus, Trychuris ovis, Trychostrongylus vitrinus., Oesophagostomum columbianum and mixed infections were prevalent as 30, 16.67, 10, 6.67, 13.33, and 23.33 respectively. Study surveys suggest, appropriate parasitic control approach be explored and tried in order to alleviate the problem of worm saddle
