- Abstract
Management of wildlife in captivity that must be considered is the use of feed additives and prevention of diseases caused by endoparasites. The digestive tract is one of the organs that are susceptible to helminthiasis. This study was aimed to determine the prevalence of endoparasite infection in Timor deer at In-situ breeding at Tinanggea Subdistrict. This research was conducted from August to October 2021 using a total of 10 specimens of deer feces samples. The samples were analyzed in the Laboratory of Animal Physiology, Reproduction and Health Unit, Faculty of Animal Husbandry, Halu Oleo University. The results of this study found 10 positive samples from 10 samples examined with the highest intensity found in the eggs of the worm Ascaris sp. of 2.5 (mild parasite category). The prevalence of each type of worm based on data collection and laboratory results showed the prevalence of Ascaris sp. by 80%, Echinococcus sp. by 20%, Moniezia sp. by 30%, and Fasciola sp. by 60%.
