The main objective of the study was to determine the types and prevalence of intestinal parasites in baboons and warthogs in the Mole National Park. A total of nineteen (19) and twenty\u2010three (23) samples were collected from the baboons and warthogs, respectively, and examined using the direct saline smear and formol\u2010ether concentration technique for the identification of cysts, eggs and larvae of parasites. The survey showed that 94.74% of the baboon samples examined was infected with at least one parasite, whereas that of the warthogs showed 95.65% prevalence. A total of seven (7) and eight (8) different parasites were identified in baboon and warthog faecal samples, respectively.\n                    <jats:italic>Strongyloides<\/jats:italic>\n                    sp. had the highest prevalence in baboons (84.21%) and warthogs (78.26%).

The results showed a high level of multiparasitism in these wild animals and an increased risk of zoonotic transmission which may result from interaction with inhabitants of the park community.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/vms3.335","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,9]],"date-time":"2020-08-09T19:11:02Z","timestamp":1597000262000},"page":"251-255","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Distribution of intestinal parasites of baboons (\n                    <i>Papio anubis<\/i>\n                    ) and warthogs (\n                    <i>Phacochoerus aethiopicus<\/i>\n                    ) at the Mole National Park, Ghana"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"7","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2396-0269","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"John A.","family":"Larbi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Theoretical and Applied Biology Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology Kumasi Ghana"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9260-464X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Stephen","family":"Akyeampong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Theoretical and Applied Biology Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology Kumasi Ghana"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4470-4504","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Seth Offei","family":"Addo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Theoretical and Applied Biology Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology Kumasi Ghana"},{"name":"Parasitology Department Noguchi Memorial Institute for Medical Research University of Ghana Accra Ghana"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kwaku Brako","family":"Dakwa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Conservation, Biology and Entomology University of Cape Coast Cape Coast Ghana"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kwadwo","family":"Boampong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Theoretical and Applied Biology Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology Kumasi Ghana"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Bright","family":"Opoku\u2010Nketiah","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Theoretical and Applied Biology Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology Kumasi Ghana"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2028.1995.tb00803.x"},{"issue":"8","key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","first-page":"5","article-title":"Ecology of multi\u2010host pathogens of animals","volume":"4","author":"Bowden S.
