Echinococcus multilocularis, this tapeworm had only been seen once in Manitoba has headed west and is now in Alberta. The tapeworm is a rare and potentially fatal, seen in coyotes and has spread to humans, according to infectious disease experts. In fact there have been four people infected in as many years. Individuals with low immunity are the ones that are at the greatest risk. Humans typically get the tapeworm from eating infected fruit and vegetables or coming into contact with infected feces. Although harmless to dogs, it does kill vermin. The parasite is primarily symptomless in humans but unless treated, it forms a lump on a human’s liver that can be fatal in dozen years. If your dog is known to eat rodents it is recommended to visit a veterinarian for deworming.
