Cestode Cysts in Two African Giant Pouched Rats (Cricetomys Gambianus)

Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, 2005

Abstract

Multiple cestode cysts identified as Taenia serialis were present in the bodies of two wild-caught African giant pouched rats (Cricetomys gambianus) at necropsy. This rodent species can be an intermediate host for this parasite. Exotic rodents kept as pets in the United States may be affected.
