Abstract
The species and numbers of helminthes found in the gastrointestinal tract of 66 freshly slaughtered clinically healthy adult indigenous goats were studied over period of one year. Sixteen species of worms were recorded from the animals Haemonchus contortus Trichostrongylus colubriformis Oesophagostomum spp. And Strongyloides papillosus being the most common. The animals harboured substantial numbers of the worms with the exception of Oesophagostomum spp. The rumen fluke Paramphistomum spp. The pancreatic fluke Eurytrema pancreaticum and Cooperia curticei were the next most common. Other species of parasites occurred in insignificant numbers and in only a few animals. The pathogenic significance of the worm burdens in relation to the management system was discussed.
