The Nebraska Humane Society shared video of workers pulling a massive cuterebra, or fly larva, from the nose of a stray kitten as a warning to pet owners about how these kinds of parasites can infect animals. (globalnews.ca)
It's cuterebra season here at NHS and last week we had a little dilute tortie / white kitten come in to NHS with one of these perpetrators in an unusual place. (nehumanesociety.org)
These are considered «accidental» infestations as they are caused by cuterebra that target wild animals for their hosts. (cathealth.com)
