Abstract
The research purpose is to identify and study parasite fauna of the red deer in the Kaliningrad Region, to determine intermediate hosts of helminths and their role in the spread of helminth infections of animals, and to study the efficacy of new domestic drugs Monizen-forte, Iversan and Gelmicide produced by NVC Agrovetzashchita, LLC against the main helminth infections of the deer. We ran diagnostics of European red deer (Cervus elaphus) for helminthiasis by helminthoscopic methods on Kaliningrad Region reindeer farms from 2018 to 2021. We identified 45 helminth species in red deer in the Kaliningrad Region. Of these, 6 trematode species, 4 cestode species and 35 nematode species. The dehelminthization used the following domestic antiparasitic drugs produced in NVC AVZ, LLC: Monizen-forte, Iversan and Gelmicide, whose therapeutic efficacy was 100% for nematode infections, and 95% for trematode and cestode infections. The drugs are well tolerated and do not cause any local irritation or allergic reactions on the skin and mucous membranes. We conducted dehelminthization of 3 groups of deer three times a year: in March, July and October 2021. The obtained study results made it possible to develop and take veterinary measures to treat and prevent helminth infections of antler deer in the Kaliningrad Region.
