Description

Toxocaridae is a zoonotic family of parasitic nematodes that infect canids and felids and which cause toxocariasis in humans (visceral larva migrans and ocular larva migrans). The worms are unable to reproduce in humans.

Three important species include:
- Toxocara canis, which infects dogs,
- Toxocara cati, which infects cats and which lacks intermediate hosts,
- Toxocara vitulorum, which infects buffalo and cattle. Copyright Text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License. See http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ for details. Source: Wikipedia, Wikipedia
