ABSTRACT

Necropsy was performed to 6 black male sheep Hawaiian and Texas Dall adults. These animals had been hunted for hunting order, showing distended abdomen and regular body condition. At necropsy was observed hydroperitoneum, moderate atrophy of fat tissue, at subcutaneous and mesenteric level. At the hepatic parenchyma there were some light pink spots, distension of bile and gallbladder mucosa in addition was thickened and content of this bladder was light yellow including the presence of several tapeworms in the lumen and even in some ducts. Samples buffered formalin-fixed were sent for histopathological diagnosis and some specimens for parasitological diagnosis. Results indicate the presence and action of Thysanosoma actinoides on the liver of these sheep.
