Living in close contact with cattle, pastoralists in the Horn of Africa are particularly vulnerable to zoonotic parasites. A recent study published in the journal Parasitology International has shed light on the prevalence of these parasites in cattle and soil in Ethiopia. The study found that cattle in pastoralist areas of Ethiopia are heavily infected with zoonotic parasites, with gastrointestinal nematodes being the most prevalent. Moreover, parasites were also detected in the soil in these areas, indicating that both cattle and soil can be potential sources of infection to the pastoralists.
