Abstract

Introduction and reintroduction require the movement of groups of animals of various sizes over considerable distances. In this case, there is a risk of the spread of pathogens of parasitic diseases. To avoid this, it is necessary to carry out a parasitological assessment of the proposed protected areas. Methods of parasitological research are given in the main areas: helminthological, arachnoentomological, protozoological. This will make it possible to draw a conclusion on the feasibility of creating a protected area in a given area and to predict the features of the invasive situation in introduced animal populations.
This paper proposes options for the ecological-parasitological study of the territories of the centers of introduction and reintroduction of animals. The work was carried out in connection with the need to develop recommendations for preventing the spread of infectious and invasive animal diseases, including anthropozoonoses, on the territory of the steppe scientific hospital of the Institute of the Steppe of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences «OrenburgTarpaniya».
