Cryptosporidiosis in animal zoonosis, clinical and epizootological aspects

The presented work presents a literature review of cryptosporidiosis, one of the most common parasitic (protozoan) diseases of animals dangerous for humans. The systematic position of pathogens, some issues of epizootology, clinical manifestations of the disease, pathogenesis and diagnostic methods are briefly described. The work is illustrated with photographs.
