Episode 36: How could one tiny tick paralyze a person?
from Tiny Vampires
Bloodsuckers can be hijacked by viruses and parasites, but some ticks are lethal all on their own. The Australian Paralysis tick paralyzes 10 thousand dogs and cats a year. We didn’t know how their venom worked until some researchers squirted some mouthwash on some ticks and made a discovery. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
