Lung worms cause respiratory problems in cattle that give them similar symptoms as if they would have a bacterial or viral pneumonia, except that they are parasites in the lung. A cow can die from having lungworms if there are too many in the lungs. An internal parasiticide is given to cattle to get rid of these worms.
