No, Cuterebra spp., also known as warbles or wolves, is a species of botfly that is not zoonotic. It inhabits wild as well as pet rodents and rabbits. It will occasionally infect dogs, cats, and ferrets.
People do have their own species of botfly: Dermatobia hominis, also known as the human botfly.

What makes a disease Zoonotic - how are they able to transmit between human and animal when other diseases cannot?
There are a variety of factors that will make a particular disease zoonotic while other similar diseases are not. However, a key indicator of zoonotic potential is whether the exact same or very similar protein the disease targets is present in both humans and animals. For instance, the outbreak of "bird flu" (H5N1) in Southeast Asia in the early 2000s targeted a particular protein in the respiratory tract that was very similar in poultry and in humans.
Can cow feces and blood infect humans?
If it's from a perfectly healthy cow, no. If it's from a cow that has a zoonotic disease that can be spread through its blood and/or feces, then yes. But there is no recorded or known disease that is liable to cause such health problems for humans.
How can elimination help zoonosis?
For other zoonotic diseases, programs are in place to eliminate the host, or the vector that spreads the disease. Plague is prevented by elimination of the rats--a common source of the infection--and of fleas that carry the disease from rats to humans.
