Fish and Wildlife Seminar: Detection of a zoonotic tapeworm in coyotes in the Puget Sound region highlights need for increased global wildlife surveillance | Yasmine Hentati, SEFS PhD student in the Prugh Lab

Seminar Title:  Detection of a zoonotic tapeworm in coyotes in the Puget Sound region highlights need for increased global wildlife surveillance  Abstract: Echinococcus multilocularis is a zoonotic tapeworm that uses canids as definitive hosts and rodents as intermediate hosts. In humans, this parasite is the causative agent of alveolar echinococcosis. Recently, its range has been expanding across the Northern Hemisphere, and it is increasingly detected in wild canids, domestic dogs, and humans across Canada and the United States. While this expansion has been documented in isolated studies across the continent, a lack of routine sampling in wildlife hinders our ability to anticipate and mitigate further spread of E. multilocularis. We confirmed the presence of E. multilocularis in the Puget Sound region using a combination of morphological and molecular techniques across carcasses and field-collected scats of coyotes (Canis latrans), this region’s most common wild canid. Morphological identification of… Contact: sconver@uw.edu. Accessibility Contact: sefsmain@uw.edu. Tuesday, October 7, 2025, 4:00 PM – 5:00 PM. Zoom - https://washington.zoom.us/j/4432362511.
