Altın Çakal’da (Canis aureus Linnaeus, 1758) Bulunan Helmint Enfeksiyonları ve Zoonotik Önemi

Altın çakal (Canis aureus Linnaeus, 1758), Türkiye’de bulunan, dünyada da oldukça geniş yayılıma sahip yabani karnivorlardan biridir. Yabani karnivorlar çeşitli zoonoz helmintleri çevreye, insanlara ve diğer hayvanlara bulaştırmaları bakımından önemli bir kaynak oluşturmaktadır. Bu araştırmada, çakallarda bulunabilecek, çevreye bulaşarak insan ve hayvan sağlığını tehdit edecek helmintlerin varlığı aranmaktadır. Bu amaçla, Türkiye’nin Batı Karadeniz ve Güney Marmara bölgesinden Veteriner Kontrol Merkez Araştırma Enstitüsü’ne gönderilen iki çakal incelenmiş, sindirim sistemlerinde; Alaria sp., Joyeuxiella echinorhyncoides, Mesocestoides sp., Uncinaria stenocephala, Rictularia cahirensis erişkinleri ile, Linguatula serrata nimfleri saptanmıştır. Bu çalışmada tespit edilen Alaria sp. ve L. serrata nimfleri bildiğimiz kadarıyla Türkiye’de altın çakallardan bildirilen ilk kayıttır.

Helminth Infections in Golden Jackals (Canis aureus Linnaeus, 1758) and Their Zoonotic Importance

Golden jackal (Canis aureus Linnaeus,1758) is one of the wild carnivore in the worldwide spread. Wild carnivores are an important source of transmission of various zoonotic helminths to the environment, humans and other animals. In this study, it was aimed to diagnose helminths which can be found in golden jackals and will threaten human and animal health by transmitting to the environment. For this purpose, two jackals which were brought from Western Blacksea and Southern Marmara region of Turkey to the Veterinary Control Central Research Instıtute were examined; and adults of Alaria sp., Joyeuxiella echinorhyncoides, Mesocestoides sp., Uncinaria stenocephala, Rictularia cahirensis and Linguatula serrata nymphs had been found in their gastrointestinal system. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first record of Alaria sp. and L. serrata nymphs in golden jackals from Turkey.
