Abstract (English): The objective of the present study was to determine the prevalence of fasciolosis and hydatidosis in slaughtered domestic ruminants based on records from different communal abattoirs in Bejaia province. All daily records for cattle, sheep and goats were used in the current investigation. Each animal carcass was inspected at least by one veterinarian. The data were collected from January 2009 to December 2016. The prevalences of fasciolosis (2.83%) and hydatidosis (2.49%) in cattle were significantly higher than in sheep (0.13% and 2.24%, respectively) and goats (0.12% and 1.82%, respectively) (P = 0.05). In cattle, fasciolosis peaked in January, and then gradually decreased from March to September, while in sheep and goats fasciolosis was present at constant rates all around the year (Fig. 3). Regarding the rate of hydatidosis, the monthly prevalence did not vary significantly in cattle, sheep and goats except in October, when a high rate was recorded in cattle. In conclusion, the findings of the present abattoir study have provided baseline data for monitoring of domestic ruminant fasciolosis and hydatidosis in Bejaia province. However, we suggest that these parasitic diseases should be investigated further at the farms in order to determine the risk factors such as animal ages and breeds, and develop economic strategies for disease control at the farms.

Abstract (Croatian): Cilj ovog istraživanja je odrediti prevalencu fascioloze i hidatidoze kod zaklanih domaćih preživara prema podacima iz različitih javnih klaonica u provinciji Bejaia. U istraživanju su korišteni podaci koji su za krave, ovce i koze prikupljani na dnevnoj osnovi. Svaki životnjski trupac je pregledao barem jedan veterinar. Podaci su prikupljani u periodu od januara 2009. do decembra 2016. godine. Prevalenca fascioloze (2,83%) i hidatidoze (2,49%) kod krava je bila značajno viša nego kod ovaca (0.13% prema 2.24%) i koza (0.12% prema 1.82%) (P = 0.05). Kod krava se fascioloza najčešće javlja u januaru, a onda postupno opada od marta do septembra. Kod ovaca i koza, fascioloza je prisutna u istom broju tokom cijele godine (Tabela 3). Kod hidatidoze mjesečna prevalenca se nije značajno razlikovala kod krava, ovaca i koza osim u oktobru kad se bilježi veliki broj slučajeva kod krava. Rezultati ovog istraživanja iz klaonica su pružili osnovne podatke za praćenje fascioloze i hidatidoze domaćih preživara u provinciji Bejaia. Naš je prijedlog da se ova parazitarna oboljenja nastavljaju istraživati na farmama kako bi se odredili faktori rizika kao što su dob i pasmina životinja te kako bi se razvile ekonomske strategije kontrole bolesti na farmama.
