Abstract: Varous diseases and parasites of the wild animal have generally been studied in relation to the possible transmission and subsequent effect on either man or his domestic animals, rather than for the benefit of wildlife itself. More recent investigations by conservation agencies have shown that diseases and parasites are a decimating factor affecting animal and bird populations. It is difficult to detmine actual numbers of wild species dying of disease because of their wild nature and the fact that they usually range in isolated habitats.
