Coco Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Hi, Are sharks today parasitized by tapeworms? I don't know, but why not ? I never found tape worm in a shark or a skate, but I found some of them in in eels and other fishes. Pouark ! I hate tapeworms (or worms in general) !

Al Dente Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 Are sharks today parasitized by tapeworms? Apparently very common in sharks and rays: "Our results suggest that ca 3600 tapeworm species have yet to be described from elasmobranch fishes" http://www.botany.otago.ac.nz/pdfs/nzmssconference/Publications/randhawa/Ecography2010_Randhawa_Poulin.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
