[edit] Copyright Issue?
This may be a copyrighted article, as it was originally all in HTML. I couldn't find anything on the internet, but a few others might want to try some searches to see if they can find any substantial hits. --Wolf530 00:12, May 24, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Correction
It's Parascaris equorum, not Parascarus equorum.In alternative it can be called Ascaris equorum so the correct nomenclature is Parascaris (=Ascaris) equorum. Try search one and another in any search engine and you'll see what I mean.
[edit] Important Correction
Horses rolling do not cause displacements or torsions. It is the displacement or torsion that causes the rolling. This is now an area which equine vets do not even debate and so I as an equine vet myself I have amended that paragraph! A lot of the rest of this article needs a good sort out as well but this is a very fundamental error.
[edit] Fresh green grass
Last edit in an irrelevant place. However, anecdotally, "FGG" is seen as a cause of spasmodic colic there, so I moved it across.
