The study indicated an overall prevalence of 94% parasitic infection in the three towns Out of the total, 69%, and 73% of the examined chickens were harboring nematodes and cestodes respectively. The nematodes identified were Ascaridia galli (13%), Heterakis gallimarum (20%), Heterakis isolonche (4%), Heterakis dispar (12%), Alodapa sucturia (6%), Subura brumpti (5%), and Aucaria hamulosa (4%) and the cestodes were Raillietina tetragona (13%), R. Echinobothridia (34%), R. Cesticillus (15%), Choenetenia infundibulum (15%), Hymenolepis continana (12%) and Hymenolepis carioca (14%) and The present study revealed a high prevalence of helminthes infection/infestation in backyard chickens. Therefore, appropriate prevention and control methods are recommended. Keywords: Gastrointestinal; Prevalence; Helminthes; Bishoftu; practices and climatic conditions are favourable for the development of Modjo and Dukem; Ethiopia the parasites [12]. Raillietina echinobothrida and Raillietina tetragona are highly pathogenic while other species are not normally harmful Introduction unless the infection is extremely heavy, which cause significant decrease in production [14].

For these reasons, Among the disease of poultry, gastrointestinal Tract (GIT) helminthes poultry products have become one of the most important protein plays an important role in reducing the total poultry production sources for man throughout the world [1]. potential of the country. However, there are currently a few information in Ethiopia that shows the prevalence and distribution The total poultry population in Ethiopia is estimated to be 38,127,504 [2] of Gastrointestinal Tract (GIT) helminthes. According to reports, the and approximately 99% of chicken is raised under the traditional back prevalence of GIT parasitism reaches 91.01% [4,16], but it is limited by yard system of management [3,4]. In Ethiopia, endogenous chickens its coverage to certain region of Ethiopia, which is not representative of play important roles in the provision of poultry meat and eggs which the whole picture of the prevalence in the country. Therefore, this study are affordable sources of animal protein for the rural population [5]. was initiated to provide baseline information on the prevalence and In Ethiopia, the traditional production system is characterized by distribution of GIT helminthes of scavenging chickens rearing under minimum inputs from the owners, usually kept in small numbers and traditional system in three town in East Shoa and to identify species of feed leftovers including occasional grain feed and household wastes. the most prevalent gastrointestinal helminthes in the study area. They are kept in various types of houses and breed naturally. In some areas, primitive poultry houses are built with simple locally available Material and Methods materials. In most areas, the chickens share the same house with their Study area owners at night. Nesting materials are often provided to simplify the collection of eggs and control of brooding. Fertile eggs are hatched The study was carried out from October 2016 to May 2017 in Bishoftu, using broody hens and the hens attend the clutches of chickens often without human intervention [6-8]. Though commercial poultry plays a significant role today, the situation regarding the commercialization has not been developed in Ethiopia [9]. *Corresponding author: Yoseph Cherinet, Department of Biomedical Sciences, College of Veterinary Medicine and Agriculture, Addis Ababa University, Bishoftu, The main constraints to the development of endogenous chicken Ethiopia, Tel: 911804383; E-mail: [email protected] production in rural Ethiopia include diseases, predation, lack of Received July 30, 2019; Accepted August 26, 2019; Published September 02, feed, poor housing, and to a lesser extent financial problems and 2019 management [10,11].

Tourism © Ethiopian www.ethiopia.travel Text: Philip Briggs; Photography: David Kirkland, Aziz Ahmed, Ludwig Siege, Antonio Fiorente Antonio Kirkland, David Siege, Briggs; Photography: Philip Aziz Ludwig Ahmed, Text: The East - Danakil, Harar and Bale Mountains • The scorching Danakil, where salt-bearing camel caravans traipse mirage-like across blinding-white salt-flats, swept by a gale known as the Gara, or Fire Wind. • Volatile Erta Ale, its volcanic caldera cradling a bubbling cauldron of molten black lava and eruptive glowing fountains of red-hot magma. • The labyrinthine alleys of Harar Jugol, an ancient walled citadel with a wealth of Islamic mosques and shrines, bustling markets overhung with aromatic spices and cafes brewing freshly-roasted coffee plucked from the surrounding hills. • The Afro-Alpine moorland of the Sanetti Plateau in Bale Mountains, where handsome red Ethiopian wolves - the world’s most endangered canids - trot jauntily through the pastel-shaded heather. • The cool damp Harenna Forest in Bale Mountains, a vast tract of gnarled tree heathers, towering bamboo clumps and a canopy of evergreen foliage. • A rapier-horned oryx antelope cantering across wide open plains of Awash National Park, a group of colourfully dressed sellers in Dire Dawa open-air market, the immense limestone caverns of Sof Omar. This is Eastern Ethiopia. A land of astonishing geographic extremes, where the austere lavascapes and salt-flats of the northern Rift Valley, which plunges to 116m below sea level in the Danakil, contrast with the misty peaks of the Bale Mountains, which rise over 4,300m a short distance further south.

  • Gone in 6 Minutes: an Ethiopian Airlines Jet's Final Journey 5 April 2019, by David Koenig
    Gone in 6 minutes: an Ethiopian Airlines jet's final journey 5 April 2019, by David Koenig Ethiopian authorities issued a preliminary report Thursday on the March 10 crash that killed 157 people. They found that a malfunctioning sensor sent faulty data to the Boeing 737 Max 8's anti-stall system and triggered a chain of events that ended in a crash so violent it reduced the plane to shards and pieces. The pilots' struggle, and the tragic ending, mirrored an Oct. 29 crash of a Lion Air Max 8 off the coast of Indonesia, which killed 189 people. The anti-stall system, called MCAS, automatically lowers the plane's nose under some circumstances to prevent an aerodynamic stall. Boeing acknowledged that a sensor in the Ethiopian Airlines jet malfunctioned, triggering MCAS when it was not needed.

  • ETHIOPIA Ethiopia Is a Federal Republic Led by Prime
    ETHIOPIA Ethiopia is a federal republic led by Prime Minister Meles Zenawi and the Ethiopian People's Revolutionary Democratic Front (EPRDF). The population is estimated at 82 million. In the May national parliamentary elections, the EPRDF and affiliated parties won 545 of 547 seats to remain in power for a fourth consecutive five-year term. In simultaneous elections for regional parliaments, the EPRDF and its affiliates won 1,903 of 1,904 seats. In local and by-elections held in 2008, the EPRDF and its affiliates won all but four of 3.4 million contested seats after the opposition parties, citing electoral mismanagement, removed themselves from the balloting. Although there are more than 90 ostensibly opposition parties, which carried 21 percent of the vote nationwide in May, the EPRDF and its affiliates, in a first-past-the-post electoral system, won more than 99 percent of all seats at all levels. Although the relatively few international officials that were allowed to observe the elections concluded that technical aspects of the vote were handled competently, some also noted that an environment conducive to free and fair elections was not in place prior to election day. Several laws, regulations, and procedures implemented since the 2005 national elections created a clear advantage for the EPRDF throughout the electoral process. Political parties were predominantly ethnically based, and opposition parties remained splintered. During the year fighting between government forces, including local militias, and the Ogaden National Liberation Front (ONLF), an ethnically based, violent insurgent movement operating in the Somali region, resulted in continued allegations of human rights abuses by all parties to the conflict.
