摘要
A 3-mo-old female emu (Dromaius novaehollandiae) died of cerebellar nematodiasis caused by Baylisascaris sp. infection. Another emu exhibited cerebellar signs identical to those of the bird that hied, but no parasite was observed. Two additional emus are clinically normal as of this report. The three emus were first treated prophylactically once weekly with ivermectin and then given daily pyrantel tartrate pellets.
