Abstract
This paper describes the damages caused by animal schistosomiasis and the role of animals in the transmission of schistosomiasis in China and reviews the progress of animal schistosomiasis control and the endemic status of animal schistosomiasis at various stages. Although the endemic situation of animal schistosomiasis has been effectively controlled, there are still multiple factors that affect the transmission of schistosomiasis, and there are still risks leading to reemergence or rebounding of schistosomiasis in local areas. Strengthening of schistosomiasis surveillance as well as the prevention and control effects in key areas, consolidation of schistosomiasis control achievements, resolving of key technical problems in the elimination of animal schistosomiasis and development of precise technical measures and strategies are needed to accelerate the progress towards the elimination of schistosomiasis in China.
