Abstract

Čagalj (Canis aureus) je u Republici Hrvatskoj zavičajna divljač iz porodice pasa. Tijekom proteklih godina zabilježen je značajan porast brojnosti ove divljači i njeno širenje na nove prostore. U do sada dostupnoj literaturi ne postoje podatci o zubnoj patologiji čaglja u Republici Hrvatskoj. U ovom istraživanju pregledano je ukupno 96 lubanja čaglja prikupljenih na području Slavonije i Baranje tijekom redovitih lovnih zahvata. Varijacije u zubalu i patološke promjene utvrđene su na 15 lubanja, odnosno na 24 zuba. Od promjena su utvrđeni prijelomi (10%), karijes (1%), prekobrojni zub (1%), nedostatak zuba (2%), periodontitis (4%), dento-alveolarni apsces (1%) i nepravilan zagriz (2%). Najčešće utvrđena promjena bio je komplicirani prijelom zuba (45% promjena), pretežito na očnjacima i deračima. Broj prijeloma zuba je statistički značajno veći od nedostatka zuba i nepravilnog zagriza (χ2= 5.6889; p=0.017073), te apscesa, karijesa, prekobrojnog zuba i horizontalnog gubitka kosti (χ2= 7.8112; p=0. 005192). Nema statističke razlike u odnosu na periodontitis. Prema lokaciji promjene su većim dijelom utvrđene na donjoj čeljusti te na lijevoj strani. Ukupno gledano utvrđeno je 12 promijenjenih zuba na lijevoj strani usne šupljine te 8 zuba na desnoj strani. Ova razlika nije statistički značajna (χ2= 1.3714; p=0.241567). Nalaz patoloških promjena i varijacija na zubima čaglja u suglasju je s istraživanjima zubala drugih divljih pripadnika porodice pasa.

Abstract (english)

Golden jackal (Canis aureus) i authochtonous game species from the family Canidae. During last several years a rapid increase in population size was recorded with consequent spread to new territories. So far there are no available records about dental pathology of golden jackals in Croatia. A total of 96 skuls were examined in this study. Skuls were collected on the Slavonija and Baranja region during the regular execution of game management plans. Dental variations and pathology were determined on 15 skuls, and on 24 teeth in total. Complicated crown fractures (10%), supernumerary tooth (1%), missing teeth (2%), periodontal disease (4%), dento-alveolar abscess (1%) and irregular bite (2%) were found. Most frequent pathology was complicated crown fracture (45% of all changes), found mostly on canines and carnassials. Statistically, number of tooth fractures is significantly higher than missing teeth and irregular bite (χ2= 5.6889; p=0.017073), and than abscess, caries, supernumerary tooth and horizontal bone loss (χ2= 7.8112; p=0. 005192). No statistical differences was found in relation to periodontal disease. Majority of alterations were located on lower jaw and on the left side. In total 12 affected teeth were found on the left side and 8 on the right side of jaws. This finding is not statistically significant (χ2= 1.3714; p=0.241567). Number and distribution of alterations is in accordance with other studies performed on wild canids’ dentition.
