Abstract

Highlights: [•] The overall prevalence of Cryptosporidium in goats was 3.48% (44/1256). [•] C. ubiquitum, C. andersoni and C. xiaoi were identified. [•] The zoonotic XIIa subtype 2 of C. ubiquitum was found. [•] C. ubiquitum and C. andersoni were the first identified species in goats. [•] Age-associated distribution of Cryptosporidium was noticed in goats. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
