The presence of E. granulosus by arecoline test was demonstrated in 7 (14.2%) of the dogs examined, but no parasites were found in the intestines of five stray dogs shot in the area. A survey of sheep slaughtered in the local abattoir during a one-month period revealed Echinococcus cysts in 10% of the 255 animals examined.
