Anthroponotic disease Anthroponotic disease An anthroponotic disease, or anthroponosis, is an infectious disease in which a disease causing agent carried by humans is transferred to other animals. It may cause the same disease or a different disease in other animals. Since humans do not generally inflict bite wounds on other animals, the method of transmissions is always a "soft" contact such as skin to skin transmission. An example is chytridiomycosis which can be spread by humans with the fungus on their skin handling frogs with bare hands. The reverse situation, a disease transmitted from animals to humans, is known as zoonotic. It
Coenurosis in humans their dogs are not infected with tapeworm. Canine vector-borne disease Coenurosis in humans Coenurosis is a parasitic infection that results when humans ingest the eggs of dog tapeworm species "Taenia multiceps", "T. serialis, T. brauni," or "T. glomerata." It is important to distinguish that there is a very significant difference between intestinal human tapeworm infection and human coenurosis. Humans are the definitive hosts for some tapeworm species, the most common being "T. saginata" and "T. solium" (beef and pork tapeworms). This means that these species can develop into full grown, reproductively capable adult worms within the human body. People infected
