The New World screwworm (NWS) was eradicated from the United States 60 years ago. So how did this flesh-eating parasite return? In early June, New Mexico confirmed its first case of NWS in a dog in the southeastern part of the state, raising concerns for ranchers, veterinarians, pet owners, and health officials. While experts stress there's no reason to panic, USDA officials say awareness and early detection are critical to preventing the pest from spreading and potentially devastating livestock. Chris and Gabby sit down with two experts to discuss how the state prepared for the threat, what symptoms animal owners should watch for, and why the livestock industry is paying close attention. Learn more about the science behind eradication efforts that once eliminated screwworm from the U.S.
How could the screwworm impact the ag industry? What should you watch for? We break down what New Mexicans need to know.
