Trichinella spp. infection in European polecats (Mustela putorius Linnaeus, 1758) from Romania

The European polecat (Mustela putorius Linnaeus, 1758) is in decline in Romania, often living near human settlements, from mountains to lowlands. They feed on a wide variety of small animals, including rodents, such as mice or rats. The occurrence of this parasite in polecats from Romania was mentio...
