Uncinaria stenocephala is a nematode that parasitizes dogs, cats, and foxes as well as humans. It is rare to find in cats in the United States. Uncinaria stenocephala is the most common canine hookworm in cooler regions, such as Canada and the northern regions of the US, where it can be found primarily in foxes (40%).[1]U. stenocephala is also one of the most common hookworms in the UK, called the northern hookworm, however it has a rather low prevalence.[2]U. stenocephala is also considered to be zoonotic hookworms because they live in animals but can be transmitted to humans.[3]
