Ecological aspects of biotechnology helminths of ruminants in the Kaliningrad Region
The value of domestic and wild ruminants as reservoirs of worms varies and depends on several factors (species composition and abundance of the hosts of the population, environmental conditions, natural features habitats, anthropic impact). The climatic and weather conditions of the Kaliningrad region adolescariae trematode larvae of strongyles and gastrointestinal tract can survive on pasture in spring and summer, autumn and winter periods. Seasonal dynamics of the circulation of worms in the environment and in the body of the intermediate, tank, definitive hosts depends on the biology and ecology of different species of trematodes, cestodes, nematodes, from climatic and economic conditions. Therefore, the reproduction of many species of trematodes, nematodes continues in populations of invertebrates (molluscs), poultry and wild hoofed animals - hosts helminth - from the first days of the new grazing season. Circulation worming of domestic and wild ruminants occurs in mixed diffuse natural foci of the Kaliningrad region. All found in cattle, sheep and goats kinds of worms have the potential to circulate in wild ruminants. Counting and shellfish gathering held once a month during the grazing period. Most species are found parasitic worms - geohelminthes. To prevent the spread of worms requires detailed data on the nature and extent of participation of various species of wild ruminants in the process of transmission of helminth pet, and vice versa. In the context of the Kaliningrad region of ecological and biocenological parasitocenosis aspects and the role of individual species in the circulation of worms studied only in recent years.
