Popis:	The host-parasite relationship between Thai lung fluke, Paragonimus heterotremus, and laboratory animals was investigated by using rats, Rattus norvegicus, and mice, Mus musculus, inoculated with the metacercariae. It was found that both animals played roles as paratenic hosts of the fluke, but rats seemed more susceptible to the fluke than mice. In addition, juvenile flukes recovered from the skeletal muscles of the animals were able to develop into adults when transferred orally to cats.
