The <br /> host specificity of coccidia in birds and mammals is, by and <br /> large, very strict, so that parasites from different species of <br /> `. birds and animals must be considered different species, even <br /> though they may look alike. The parasites which cause the <br /> disease in chickens are different than those which cause disease <br /> with a similar name in other birds and animals. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> i <br /> Syed Bokhari <br /> Poultry Advisor <br /> SD: jb <br /> Enclosure <br /> University of California and U.S. Department of Agriculture cooperating. <br />
