The scientific paper elucidates the importance of using remedies of natural origin, compared to those of chemical origin, in combating ectoparasites in gallinaceous birds. For the first time, the antiectoparasitic efficacy of the natural extract Ectogalimol, obtained from the plant raw material, dry aerial parts of the Dalmatian chamomile (Pyretrum cinerariifolium Trev.) which in a concentration of 3%, administered by spraying in two rounds at an interval of 14 days, in a dose of 50 ml per bird, possesses a high therapeutic effectiveness against the various species of ectoparasites (bird lice, fleas and gamasid mites). For comparative purposes, the drug Ivermec-OR is used, which also possesses a high antiparasitic efficacy against various species of bird lice, fleas and gamasid mites in gallinaceous birds, compared to the natural extract Ectogalimol, which does not require restrictions on the consumption of products and by-products from treated birds.

The study of the composition and process for additional feeding and deworming of hares is an important, fundamental and, especially, applicative issue, because some species serve as definitive hosts in the development cycle and as parasitic vectors, being dangerous for both domestic animals and humans. Parasitosis are the most common diseases in wildlife of the hunting fauna, which results with substantial economic losses. The invention relates to the protection of hunting fauna, namely to a composition and a process for additional feeding and deworming of hares. The composition, according to the invention, comprises, in %: oats 30.0-50.0, wheat 4.0-7.0, barley 2.0-4.0, corn 2.0-4.0, sunflower groats 2.0-4.0, soybean groats 2.0-4.0, bentonite 20.0-30.0, molasses 1.0-2.0, dextrin 2.0-3.0, premix containing vitamins, oligoelements, minerals, coccidiostatic and antioxidant 1.0-2.0, and a preparation containing 20% albendazole 1.0-2.0. The process, according to the invention, provides for the administration to hares of said composition, in a dose of 75 g/hare, in winter, twice with an interval of 14 days, in the form of briquettes, placed at a height of 25-40 cm from the soil.
