Sentinel surveillance for zoonotic parasites in companion animals in indigenous communities of Saskatchewan.

The American journal of tropical medicine and hygiene - 1 Sept 2012

Schurer Janna M, Hill Janet E, Fernando Champika, Jenkins Emily J

Abstract excerpt

Indigenous communities may have increased risk of exposure to zoonotic parasites, including Echinococcus granulosus, Toxocara canis, Toxoplasma gondii, Diphyllobothrium spp., and Giardia duodenalis, for which dogs may serve as sentinels for or sources of human infection. Canid fecal samples were collected from dogs and the environment in five indigenous communities across Saskatchewan and Alberta (N = 58, 62, 43,...
