Abstract

The ixodid tick burdens of eland (Taurotragus oryx), greater kudu (Tragelaphus strepsiceros), nyala (Tragelaphus angasi), bushbuck (Tragelaphus scriptus) and giraffe (Giraffa camelopardalis) in the Kruger National Park, Transvaal; of African buffalo (Syncerus caffer) and nyala in the Hluhluwe Game Reserve, Natal; and of gemsbok (Oryx gazella) in the Mountain Zebra National Park, an eland in the Thomas Baines Nature Reserve and an eland and greater kudu in the Andries Vosloo Kudu Reserve, eastern Cape Province, were determined. The tick burdens of animals shot at the same time and locality are compared, and the attachment sites of some tick species on some of the hosts are given.
