Abstract

Parasitic infections in elephants in captivity is not well studied. Animals in captivity are susceptible to parasitic infections because they are prone to stress, which reduces their immune response. Therefore, this study aimed to identify gastrointestinal parasite infections among captive sumatran elephants in Taman Margasatwa Ragunan (TMR). A total of 86 fecal samples were obtained from 4 individual Sumatran elephants, conducted in October-December 2024. Screening of GIPs was carried out using the concentration sedimentation method. A total of 3 GIPs were recovered with the prevalence of hookworm and Balantidium coli is the highest (100%) and Strongyloides sp. (25%). Although there are some parasites found in faeces, Sumatran elephants in TMR There are no specific symptoms associated with the parasite. There is no parasite prevention and control management, such as routine monitoring or administration of anti-parasitic drugs to elephants at TMR. Management and control of parasitic infections needs to be improved to prevent the infection from getting worse and suppress parasite transmission.

Abstract

Primates living in cages are highly susceptible to parasitic infections. Assessing the level of parasitic infection in endangered animals is important to support animal welfare and develop conservation strategies. The infection status of endoparasites in Javan gibbons has been little reported. This study aimed to identify endoparasites and their prevalence in Javan gibbons in Taman Margasatwa Ragunan (TMR). Fecal samples (N=80) were collected from 4 individual Javan gibbons (1 adult male, 2 adult females, and 1 infant male) in October-December 2024. Fecal samples were preserved with 10% formalin solution and analyzed by the formalin-ethyl acetate sedimentation method. As a result, eggs of the order Strongylida, order Rhabditida (Strongyloides sp.), and order Enoplida (Trichuris trichiura) were found. Adult males were positively infected with worms of the Strongylida order, whereas infant males were infected with Strongyloides sp. and T. trichiura with a prevalence of 25%. The endoparasites found in this study are common in captive and wild Javan gibbons. To prevent an increase in infection, direct contact between humans (keepers/visitors) and Javan gibbons should be strictly prevented. This information is useful in developing a health management program for Javan gibbons in TMR as well as completing information related to endoparasites in Javan gibbons in cages.
