Apart from F. magna recovered from the liver of 3 out of 27 animals, examination of the lungs, gastrointestinal tract and muscle samples revealed the presence of Dictyocaulus lungworms (26/27 animals), gastrointestinal nematodes (27/27 animals; 11 species identified), and Sarcocystis cysts in the cardiac and/or diaphragmatic myocytes (7/27 animals). In addition, examination of rectum feces indicated the presence of protostrongylid nematode (Varestrongylus lungworms and Elaphostrongylus tissue worms; 1/27 and 17/27 animals, respectively) and Eimeria coccidial infections (12/27 animals).
