dc.description.abstract Protozoal infection is one of the major drawback of cattle farming in Bangladesh. It causes a serious damage to the productivity of cattle. The present study aimed to look at the prevalence of protozoan infection in cattle of Bhangura upazila of Pabna district. A total of 125 fecal samples were collected from different areas of Bhangura upazila of Pabna and microscopic investigation was conducted to identify protozoal oocyst/egg. The result showed 35.2% of overall prevalence. Individual prevalence was observed 23.2% for Balantidia coli and 12% for Eimeria spp. Adult cattle (41.02%) were more susceptible than younger ones (25.53%) whereas prevalence was more prominent in monsoon season (51.43%) compared to winter (14.55%). Dewormed cattle were somewhat more resistant to protozoan infection (22.11% vs 76.67%). Extensive study including more associated risk factors will give a more detailed picture about the protozoan infection. en_US
