Ecological features of formation of stability of model species of wild animals in the «parasite-host» system

Abstract

Studies have found that the number of reported species of helminthes in wild ungulates varies at different seasons of the year: during the summer-autumn season - 12 species of helminthes, the winter-spring - 16 species. Helminthes, as a biotic factor, has a strong impact on the organisms’ resistance of wild ungulates. The finding of resistance indicators of animals allows determining the degree of unfavorable biotic environmental factors (helminthes) exposure and to assess the resistance of both individual organisms and the population as a whole
