Abstract

Trichinosis in the natural conditions of the Amur Region. G.A. BONDARENKO, I.A. SOLOVYEVA, T.I. TRUKHINA, D.A. IVANOV (Far East Zone Research Veterinary Institute, Blagoveshchensk).

Trichinosis in the Amur Region is an infectious disease with natural foci. Currently, the causative agent of trichinosis in the natural conditions of the Amur Region has been identified in 7 species of wild animals: lynx, badger, red fox, wolf, raccoon dog, wild boar and Siberian weasel. For monitoring activities on trichinosis, the wolf and red fox can be recommended as indicator species in the Amur Region. The role of mouse-like rodents as a source of invasion for wild animals under the conditions of the Amur Region has not been identified.
