Fig. 3. A in Wild horse populations in south-east Australia have a high prevalence of Strongylus vulgaris and may act as a reservoir of infection for domestic horses

Fig. 3. A box and whisker plot (with individual data points) of the total strongyle egg counts across the different populations, showing the highest FECs were from samples from Bogong High Plains and Tin Mines, both alpine heathland habitats. Overall 89% of samples had FECs> 500 EPG, classed as 'high level shedders'.
