Building on our first episode, Dr. Cassandra Olds from the Entomology Department at Kansas State University joins Dr. Don Coover to discuss the growing threat of the Asian Longhorned Tick and its impact on the cattle industry.
She discusses her research on Theileria spread by this invasive tick that affects red and white blood cells, leading to serious health challenges in infected cattle. Learn how this emerging issue is affecting producers, what symptoms to watch for, and what can be done to mitigate its impact.
