Gigantocotyle explanatumis a very common digenean trematode parasite affecting the domesticated animals usually present in the liver, bile duct and gallbladder. A study was designed to find out the
prevalence of G. explantum at Sihala Slaughter House, Rawalpindi. Three hundred livers of buffaloes were examined and sixty three livers were found infected by G. explanatum. The prevalence of G.
explanatum was 21.24%. These results showed significant range of damage in buffaloes by this parasite,which in turn causes heavy economic loss in dairy industry. So, it is required to take immediate steps for reduction of infectious rate.
