By digestion, the tongue contained the highest density of bradyzoites in Gazella dorcas, and\n                    <jats:italic>Gazella gazella erdangeri<\/jats:italic>\n                    , the oesophagus in\n                    <jats:italic>Gazella subgutturosa marica<\/jats:italic>\n                    and skeletal muscle in Gazel\/a gazella and Gazelha thomsoni.
