Gastrointestinal parasites are frequently encountered in captive non-human primates and
infestation may have severe consequences on the animal's health status. Most of these …

An increasing number of studies have found that the implementation of feeding sites for
wildlife-related tourism can affect animal health, behaviour and reproduction. Feeding sites …

Understanding the complex Entamoeba communities in the mammalian intestine has been,
to date, complicated by the lack of a suitable approach for molecular detection of multiple …

Currently, there is a lack of surveys that report the occurrence of gastrointestinal parasites in
the white-headed capuchin monkey (Cebus albifrons). We therefore assessed the presence …

Little information is currently available on the occurrence and genetic diversity of pathogenic
and commensal protist species in captive and semi-captive non-human primates (NHP) …
