Organismes vermiformes d'une embranchement nommé #Nematomorpha, ils fréquentent les #eauxDouces cosmopolites (les points d'eau des grottes, les flaques, les étangs, les lacs, les cours d'eau de toutes tailles, mais aussi domestiques comme les piscines, les cuvettes de toilettes, les abreuvoirs pour bovins et les gamelles d'animaux de compagnie 🤪 ).

Thousands of cyclosporiasis cases across 34+ US states this summer — and just when the CDC traced it to lettuce, the lead turned out to be a false positive. 🥬🔬

The real source? Still unknown.

Behold the jackal food. Rather than using photosynthesis to make food, this parasite siphons nutrients from host plants. The corpse-like stench of its fruit attracts jackals & other carnivores... but how does it taste? Its texture & flavor have been compared to that of a potato!

When organisms colonize new environments, they can experience release from previous parasites. Bolnick et al. use an experiment to track how this release leads to large fluctuations in infection rates, as well as immune evolution.

"Please be cautious around stray cats. If you see a sick or unusually acting cat, DO NOT TOUCH IT. Report it to City of Spur or the appropriate authorities right away.

"When #cowbird abundance declines, such as is occurring in the #OkanaganValley and throughout much of North America, a sort of 'competitive release' could occur, where individual female #cowbirds may be free to maintain larger egg-laying territories and to parasitize more nests."

#Contamination warnings issued for 5 #MaineBeaches heading into Labor Day weekend

John Terhune, Portland Press Herald, Maine
September 1, 2023

"Contaminated waters could hinder #beach adventures from York to Camden this Labor Day weekend.

The Maine Department of Environmental Protection has issued contamination warnings for five Maine beaches after finding elevated levels of #fecalbacteria.

"The affected beaches are #WillardBeach in #SouthPortland, #GooseRocksBeach in #Kennebunkport, #GoochsBeach in #Kennebunk, #CapeNeddickBeach in #YorkMaine and #LaiteBeach in #CamdenMaine. Total beach closures are rare in Maine, and as of Friday night all five affected beaches remained open.

"The presence of enterococci bacteria suggests water also may contain other harmful bacteria, #viruses or #parasites, according to the DEP's Maine Healthy Beaches program, which tracks water quality at public beaches from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Contact with contaminated water can cause flu-like symptoms, #gastrointestinal issues, rashes and #infection.

"Beachgoers are advised to avoid areas with contamination warnings.

"Laite Beach in Camden, which had more than 26 times more fecal bacteria than the threshold deemed safe, was the most contaminated beach on Friday night, according to DEP data."
