However, there is little information about foxes and wolves, which have a potential role in the spread of dangerous parasitic diseases, such as echinococcosis and toxocariasis. The aim of the present study was to identify the genus or species of parasitic worms in stool samples obtained from carnivores in Mazandaran Province, Iran, from August 2017 to April 2018.\n\nMaterials and Methods: A total of 274 fecal samples were collected from carnivores, including dog, fox, wolf, and C. aureus in three areas of Mazandaran Province, Iran. All specimens were examined by centrifugal fecal flotation using a solution of Sheather's sugar to detect helminths eggs. Then, all samples were assessed using a light microscope. Data analysis was performed by SPSS version. 18 (Chicago, IL, USA).\n\nResults: In this study, seven genera of helminths were observed, including Ancylostoma, Uncinaria, Toxocara, Dipylidium, Toxascaris, Taenia, and Spirocerca. The prevalence of helminth infections was 97.7% (127 out of 130), 56.7% (51 out of 90), 51.4% (18 out of 35), and 52.6% (10 out of 19), among dogs, C. aureus, foxes, and wolves, respectively. The highest prevalence of Ancylostoma and Toxocara infections occurred in the eastern and central areas of the province (42.1% and 35.7%, respectively).\n\nConclusion: Based on the results of this study, the infection with intestinal zoonotic helminths in carnivores was an important public health factor in Mazandaran. Therefore, these infections can be potentially harmful to humans and other animals.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.14202\/vetworld.2020.2643-2648","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,12]],"date-time":"2020-12-12T10:49:24Z","timestamp":1607770164000},"page":"2643-2648","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Parasitic helminth infections of dogs, wolves, foxes, and golden jackals in Mazandaran Province, North of Iran"],"prefix":"10.14202","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3172-5939","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Abolghasem","family":"Siyadatpanah","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Ferdows School of Paramedical and Health, Birjand University of Medical Sciences, Birjand, Iran."}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1234-6127","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Abdol Sattar","family":"Pagheh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Infectious Diseases Research Center, Birjand University of Medical Sciences, Birjand, Iran."}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8571-5803","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ahmad","family":"Daryani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Parasitology, Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences, Sari, Iran."}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3412-1033","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shahabeddin","family":"Sarvi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Parasitology, Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences, Sari, Iran."}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2990-1123","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Seyed Abdollah","family":"Hosseini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Parasitology, Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences, Sari, Iran."}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4393-2380","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Roghayeh","family":"Norouzi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathobiology, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, University of Tabriz, Tabriz, Iran."}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9551-3017","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Larson","family":"Boundenga","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Group Evolution and Interspecies Transmission of Parasites, Department of Parasitology, Centre International de Recherches M\u00e9dicales de Franceville, BP: 769, Franceville, Gabon."}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9189-4190","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fatemeh","family":"Tabatabaie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Parasitology and Mycology, Faculty of Medicine, Iran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran."}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6703-7869","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Maria de Lourdes","family":"Pereira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"CICECO - Aveiro Institute of Materials and Department of Medical Sciences, University of Aveiro, Aveiro 3810, Portugal."}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2429-7702","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shirzad","family":"Gholami","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Parasitology, Mazandaran University of Medical Sciences, Sari, Iran."}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8652-7556","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Veeranoot","family":"Nissapatorn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Allied Health Sciences and Research Excellence Center for Innovation and Health Products, Walailak University, Nakhon Si Thammarat, Thailand."}]}],"member":"5308","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref0","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","unstructured":"Hundal, J.S., Singh, S.S., Gupta, A., Singh, J. and Chahal, U.S. (2016) Awareness, knowledge, and risks of zoonotic diseases among livestock farmers in Punjab.
