Using experimental de-worming to measure the immunological and pathological impacts of lungworm infection in cane toads
The immunological and pathological consequences of parasite infection can be more rigorously assessed from experimental manipulation than from correlational studies of natural infections. We used anthelmintic treatment to experimentally decrease intensities of lungworm infection in captive and free-...
