Canada Stops Texas Cattle Imports After Flesh-Eating Worm Outbreak

Canada has stopped buying cattle from Texas. This is because of a new outbreak in the United States. The problem is a flesh-eating screwworm. It can hurt animals badly. In Texas, officials found another infected calf. They said the state is in a disaster situation. Because of this, Canada made the ban to protect its own farms and animals. The rule means cattle from Texas cannot enter Canada for now. Officials will watch the situation and may change the rule later.
