Severe pulmonary fascioloidosis in a wild Mouflon (Ovis musimon) - a case report
A wild male mouflon (Ovis musimon) was shot due to the observed weakness. Necropsy revealed consolidated lungs and traces of black pigment and fibrin on the liver. On the cut surface, a juvenile fluke was found in the lungs, while traces of destroyed flukes’ migratory channels were found in the liver. F. magna infection in both, wild and domestic ruminants, causes three types of species-specific host-parasite interactions ; definitive, dead-end and aberrant. Mouflon are classified as aberrant hosts and here we report unsuccessful migration of a juvenile fluke that led to a severe pneumonia.
