Abstract
The aim of this project was to know the prevalence of the sarcosporidiosis in cattle, sheep < /em> and goats  in Syrian coast and its distribution in different area of the carcasses.
The (1250) samples were collected from (250) slaughtered animal The samples include eosophagus, heart, tongue, diaphragm, and skeletal muscles of the forelimbs and hindquarters were S examined micorscopically searching for sarcosporidiosis.As a result of infestigation (77,77%) of cattle,(90,90%) of sheep,(80%) of goats were found to be infected with sarcosporidiosis . The infection was noticed in all samples of cattle (11,11%) , (27,27%) in sheep and (22%) in goats  26.66% whereas (88,88%) of cattle,(72,72%) of sheep and (58%) of goats had sarcosystosis in some of their collected specimens.The highest infected organ was seen in heart and tongue of cattle and Sheep as folw (66,66%),(86%) in heart and (50%),(81,81%) in tongue then (38,88%) in diaphragm,(33,33%) in esophagus,(22,22%) in skeletal muscles of cattle, then (72,72%) in skeletal muscles,(68,68%) in diaphgram,(63,63%) in esophagus of sheep, in goats the highest infected organ was in esophagus (62,5%) then in diaphragm (50%) and (47,5%) in skeletal muscles ,(45%) in heart and (42,5%) in tongue. This study reflects how much animals agricultural environment is contaminated by  sarcosystosis oocysts and the high prevelance of the infection in animals capita and their companions dogs and cats.
