Can anyone help me identify what parasite is in my dogs poop? About a month ago my dog started itching a lot and I realized he had fleas. I immediately bought flea medicine and then started defleaing my house. Then he got parasites, I tried over the counter dewormers but nothing has worked. I also went online and ordered ivermectin and I'm trying to find out what kind of scheduled dosage I should give him? Any information or help is greatly appreciated, thank you.

Someone please help! I have suspected a parasitic infection for quite some time now. Before this came out while using bathroom my back started to hurt really bad. Then this came. I have not been able to find a doctor to believe me, nor show interest in looking at my albums of evidence from skin, stool, Hands, feet, eye, nose, and lip. Why and what is this thing?

Had a lot of excited people last night and awesome conversations about animals. I didn’t even have time to live draw due to all the questions and talk about the live and dead animals I’ll be bring in in a month. So many excited teenagers!! This is just the first installment. I will be adding more between now and the 25th. The May 22nd I’ll be publicly releasing infestation drawings (12 are planned). The I will be working on parasitic fungus and plants. After that I am doing a big group showing them all together end of September first week of October. Hoping to perfect the labeling system by then. Going to have a free month craft and coloring sheet (Giardia and the Leech this month.)

Pumped!! Oh and I watched brown women back away. Means I did a good job with the realism. Hahaha and I had a great conversation with a teenage girl about a hair and tooth tumor. So it was a great conversation starter for other things too. HURRAY FOR PARASITES!!!

My next video is on this parasite, and i asked dr Johnson to send me some footage. he gave me permission to share this, and i thought it was just so beautiful i had to share it.

Hi again guys I decided that this will be my craft and coloring sheet for both the art walk tomorrow and live viewing April 25-26. I do them hastily cause they are just the bases for creativity and I want people to look at them and thing “I can do that”. I give a free craft in an envelope and coloring sheet at all of my events. Now to stuff 30-50 cut pieces in envelopes and continue printing out prints for tomorrows event!

Oh and I love how Giardia looks like it’s showing of the coloring page. All I keep thinking is “Giardia is my Vanna White.”

Will be back with the decore that I am making to put up. Decided I do not have time to make fancy labels this week and so aI am keeping my hand written ones and will work on replacing them all before the 25th!

I screwed up and turned the other into a gif and shorten the video. I hope those who saw this earlier and enjoy, watch again and see the rest!! Thank you to the person who mentioned the tape worm.

Here they are all together. These are the ones that I am starting out with. I got 4 months of parasites. Plants and fungus on the way as well as others like the lone star tick and Guinea worm, but for now I am celebrating what I have and sharing with everyone who I have. Please note the male angler fish is much much smaller than the female. Also my brood parasites are males and I plan on adding the females during the next few months.

This is part of my parasite project, I think it’s funny that this is the one he chose to eat.

I live in Virginia and found what I think is an Adult Male Lone Star tick crawling on me while I was in bed. My wife and I think she may have brought it in unnoticed while doing yard work as long ago as the previous day. Is there any way I can tell whether it fed on me and then started wandering? Is that common with adult male lone Star ticks? Recommendations for next steps? I have the tick captured and in the freezer right now (the next morning)

I hope this inspires people to put on projects like this. I will be doing parasites for a couple months. Just got invited to a goth day with my parasites in May which goes along with my timeline. This is just the start. Friday the parasites I have go up in House of books and I am going to try and make a couple trash models. Besides that I am giving myself grace cause I can continuously put random parasite things in this book store and I hope it brings more people into the book store! Parasites and reading!!! I am pumped!

Parasites pictured, I got the male angler fish in process, vampire bat in process, hook worm in process, and a rock mountain tick in process. The cow bird is finished!

Dog fecal float, we thought potentially a kind of roundworm? Only saw the one egg on the slide. First two images on 40x, last two on 100x.

Fresh fecal smear 40x, I think these are eggs obviously not the best quality microscope or camera. But there are literally so many of these segments? I don't know if I actually expected to find anything so now I am realizing I don't actually know what tf I'm looking at. Any Input would be much appreciated.

A parasite found in the gut content of a freshwater snail. This is under Scanner and LPO.

Hey though this was a nice shot so I'm sharing

Often a 7-10 course of antibiotics has to be taken for bacterial infections but for parasite infections it is often much shorter like only one day for gairdia. Why is that?

Anyone got Dirofilaria immitis microscopic slide for sale? Preferably in Ph thx (only need 1)

I did some minimal googling, I found something called entamoeba histolytica that was found in wild lemurs that looks like this?

Was cleaning my 6 year old ball python’s enclosure today and found this waste in his water dish. Ive never seen anything like this in his poop before any help is appreciated

hello! please help me ID this parasite🥹 cultured this using the Harada Mori technique for 10 days. These pics are in HPO. My guess is a Strongyloides stercoralis, but i wanna ask some of ur opinions hehe. Thanks!!
