Sixty-one red foxes [Vulpes vulpes] from New Brunswick and Nova Scotia [Canada] were examined for helminths. Alaria americana, A. arisaemoides, A. mustelae, Cryptocotyle lingua, Echinostoma revolutum, Metorchis conjunctus, Capillaria aerophila, Crenosoma vulpis, Toxocara canis, Uncinaria stenocephala and Taenia crassiceps were found. About 67% of the foxes examined were clinically affected with Sarcoptes scabiei mange.
