In this article analysis of statistical data about veterinary-sanitary expertise of carcasses and viscera in light of the interdisciplinary study of game animal's parasitofauna on the example of Perm region is presented. It is established that at the period of 2011-2015 81 expertise cases of carcasses and viscera of game animals were conducted at hunting areas, as well as 241 cases at the market laboratories. Twelve cases of parasite pathologies (3.75 %) were detected as a Metastrongylus and Cysticercus taaenuicollis infection in boars and C. tarandi in moose. Trichinella larvae were not found.
