Distribution Developed in Eurasia Developed in Eurasia Presented in U.S. in the 1950’s Presented in U.S. in the 1950’s Accidental Introduction Accidental Introduction

Stages of Disease When the parasite enters the fish, it attacks the spinal cartilage. When the parasite enters the fish, it attacks the spinal cartilage. The fish swims fast (Whirls), hence the name whirling disease The fish swims fast (Whirls), hence the name whirling disease

Effects on People Effected Anglers because it infected fish they targeted Effected Anglers because it infected fish they targeted Infected some Anglers Infected some Anglers

Effects on Ecosystem Affected bears, fish, birds and raccoons Affected bears, fish, birds and raccoons This caused a decline of the population of these animals This caused a decline of the population of these animals

Issues for the future Foundations have been created to prevent the disease from spreading. Foundations have been created to prevent the disease from spreading.

Reasons for Success Since there is no known treatment. Since there is no known treatment. This causes it to spread throughout the country. This causes it to spread throughout the country.

No Food Web It is not possible to make a food web because there it is just a parasite that attacks fish. It is not possible to make a food web because there it is just a parasite that attacks fish.
