New World screwworm confirmed in Texas wildlife and New Mexico cattle
Original: New World screwworm cases confirmed in wildlife in Texas, beef cow in New Mexico
The US Department of Agriculture has confirmed the first detection of New World screwworm in US wildlife, with cases found in Texas and an infected beef cow in New Mexico. The flesh-eating parasite, eradicated from the US decades ago, threatens livestock herds and raises alarm across the cattle industry about containment and trade impacts.
Why now: The parasite's return threatens the US cattle industry and food supply, reviving memories of a costly past eradication campaign.
