From a total of 27 lung cysts there was no fertile cyst detected in goats. In sheep, a total of 49 cysts were examined to identify cyst fertility or viability out of these 24%, 20%, 28% and 28% were identified as fertile, non-viable, sterile and calcified, respectively. Out of 49 sheep with hydatid cysts, 57.1 % harbored hydatid cysts in lung, 36.7 % in liver, 2.04% in kidney and 4.08 % in muscle. Organ distribution hydatid cyst revealed that lung and liver were found frequently infected. More Hydatid infected sheep were found in Negelle where as 11.7 % of goats with Hydatid cyst was found in Yabello zone. However, young goats found significantly affected by Coenurosis. There was no significant difference in the prevalence of coenurus cerebralis in sheep and at different age groups and in both species. Of the total 400 goats examined for hydatid cysts, 6.8 % and coenurus cerebralis,5% were found positive. Out of the total 785 small ruminants examined for the presence of hydatid cysts and coenurus cerebralis an overall prevalence of 7.39% and 3.8% was recorded, respectively. A cross-sectional study was carried out from November 2015 to March 2016 in the Elfora export Abattoir, in the Bishoftu city of Ethiopia with the objective of estimates the prevalence, organ distribution, viability of metacestodes, to identify major risk factors and to assess the level of risk perception of community about zoonotic cestodes.
