Resumo: Free-living capybaras can be considered reservoirs of various agents, mainly gastrointestinal parasites. The proximity of these animals to humans further reinforces the importance of investigating the parasite population. The objective of this study was to carry out coproparasitological examinations of capybaras that live in the Municipal Lake of Jaboticabal- SP. Twenty-five stool samples were evaluated using modified Faust flotation and Foreyt sedimentation techniques. It was possible to estimate that 72% of the samples corresponded to adult animals and 28% to juveniles less than one year old. The parasite corresponding to Photozoophaga obesa was found in 71.42% of the samples from young capybaras. In addition, eggs of the superfamily Trichostrongyloidea were found in higher prevalence. Besides Strongyloides chapini; Protozoophaga obesa; Capillaria hydrochoeri; Monoecoestus spp. and non sporulated Eimeria spp. No parasites with zoonotic potential were found, but further monitoring of these animals is beneficial for both human and animal health, since capybaras can be reservoirs for some diseases.

Com a proximidade desses animais aos humanos, reforça mais a importância da investigação da população parasitária. Objetivou-se, com o presente trabalho, realizar exames coproparasitológicos de capivaras que habitam o Lago Municipal do Município de Jaboticabal-SP. Foram avaliadas 25 amostras de fezes, utilizando as técnicas de flutuação de Faust modificada e sedimentação de Foreyt. Foi possível estimar que 72% das amostras correspondiam a animais adultos e 28% de jovens com menos de um ano. Foi encontrado, em permeio às síbalas de fezes, o parasito correspondente a Protozoophaga obesa em 71,42% das amostras de capivaras jovens. Ademais, foram encontrados em maior prevalência os ovos da Superfamília Trichostrongyloidea. Além de Strongyloides chapini, Protozoophaga obesa, Capillaria hydrochoeri, Monoecoestus spp. e Eimeria spp. não esporulada. Não foram encontrados parasitos com potencial zoonótico, porém um maior monitoramento desses animais é benéfico tanto para a saúde dos humanos, quanto dos animais, visto que as capivaras podem ser reservatórios para algumas doenças.MEDICINA VETERINÁRIA2023-11-23info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://www.journals.ufrpe.br/index.php/medicinaveterinaria/article/view/564610.26605/medvet-v17n3-5646Medicina Veterinária; v. 17 n. 3 (2023): Medicina Veterinária; 146-1522675-66171809-467810.26605/medvet-v17n3reponame:Medicina Veterinária (Recife.
