PAEASITIC DISEASES, part 2

3 HIDATIDOSIS
It is produced by the cystic stages of Echinococcus granulosus tapeworm of
seencuentra whose adult form in the small intestine of dogs and wild carnivores. The cysts usually selocalizan in the liver and lungs resulting in the seizure of such bodies and the resulting economic losses. From the standpoint of public health has tambiénimportancia because it is a zoonosis that has a relatively high incidence in areas of breeding camels. Disease control, as in the case of sarcocistiosis, is to prevent the dogs consume viscera cysts and their periodic dosing against Echinococcus.

4 FLUKE
It is caused by the parasite Fasciola hepatic bile ducts of the liver. His cicloevolutivo involves the participation of an intermediate host, a snail of the genus Limnea, which inhabits the wetlands and marshes. In the highlands of the Puna, the incidence dedistomatosis in alpacas and llamas appears to be low, which is attributed to climáticasno conditions would be suitable for the development of the snail. However when sontrasladados animals to lower elevations, where usually there are many shells, heavy infestations can occur producing sharp pictures and high mortality. This happened with alpacasque were transferred from the Department of Puno, Cajamarca, in the early stages of repopulation delPrograma Alpacas, referred to above.

5 DISEASES CAUSED by ectoparasites
In this group the most important disease is scabies, by affecting the growth of the fiber and sucalidad, besides causing growth retardation and alteration of other productive functions. The condition is caused by the presence and multiplication of ectoparasitic mites known to nombrede. We found two species of them in alpacas, llamas and vicunas: Sarcoptes and Psoroptes scabieivar aucheniae aucheniae.

The prevalence of the disease varies depending on the technological level of exploitation and. laépoca of the year. It is higher level of small producers in the condition may be massive, the spring-summer, are most conducive to the presentation of the disease. Sucontrol is relatively simple as long as they do so oportuna.Hoy treatment in days, with the development of systemic drugs for parenteral administration, the treatment and control of ectoparasites is much simpler. However, the problem faced by small producers is the lack of resources for the purchase of medicines and, often, inadequate use of them for lack of access to technical assistance.

The Piojera is another disease caused by parasites of the genus and Damalinia.Son Microthoracius suctopicadores or chewing pests that feed on blood in the first case and delas desquamated epithelial cells in the second, causing itching which causes animals to rub and fiber damage. The Piojera may acquire characteristics enzootic in rural communities and small farmers (30% to 100%)
