천연기념물 제 331호인 식욕목 바다표범과 포유류인 수컷 잔점박이 물범(harbor seal, Phoca vitulina) 1마리가 폐사되어 부검을 의뢰하였다. 포획시기는 불명확하지만 연령은 10세로 추정되는 물범은 체중이 약 90kg이고 체장140cm이며, 4여년 동안 동물원에서 전시되었다가 폐사하였다. 부검시 심장에서는 선충 2마리가 발견되었다. 이 성충 2마리중 길이가 14cm인 수컷 1마리는 우심방에서 발견되었고, 죄심방에서는 길이가 28cm인 암컷 1마리가 발견되었다. 검사결과 본 선충은 심장 사상충 (Dirofilaria immitis)으로 판명되었고, 동물원 풀장에서 서식하는 동안 감염된 것으로 생각된다.

A male harbor seal (Phoca bitulina) about 10 years of age died. The seal was presented for necropsy in the Veterinary Teaching Hospital, Chungbuk National University in August 2001. The seal had been a concrete pool in zoo for 4 years. The exact duration of captivity was unknown. The carcass was weighed about 90 kg and was about 140 cm length. At necropsy, 2 adult filarioid worms were found in the right and left ventricles. The filaroid worms weren't found in the other organs. The parasites were slender white nematodes. A male nematode in the right ventricle was 14 cm long, and a female nematode in the left ventricle was 26 cm long in length. The parasites were identified as Dirofilaria immitis.

A male harbor seal (Phoca vitulind) about 10 years of age was presented in the Veterinary Teaching Hospital, Chungbuk National University in August 2001. At necropsy, 2 adult filarioid worms were found in right and left ventricles in a harbor seal.
The exact identification of the adult worms is also questionable in some cases8. Filaroid worms, identified as Dipetalonema spirocauda7, were found in right atrium, right ventricle, and pulmonary artery of a young harbor seal (Phoca vitulina). Dipetalonema spp were found in 2 of 13 harbor seals examined15.
The filaroid worms weren't found in the other organs. The parasites were slender white nema todes. A male nematode in the right ventricle was 14 cm long, and a female nematode in the left ventricle was 26 cm long in length, repectively (Fig 1 and Fig 2).
