The latest confirmed case of the New World screw worm is in a sheep in Sutton County, 135 miles northwest of San Antonio.
The tracking of the flesh-eating parasite shows it has moved beyond the Texas-Mexico border zone and into the Texas Hill Country.
The screw worm is a parasitic fly that attacks cattle, sheep, goats, wildlife, pets, and rarely people.
A screw worm fly lays hundreds of eggs in an open wound or body opening such as a nose in a living, warm-blooded animal.
The rapid infestation can be deadly.
Livestock owners are being urged to inspect animals regularly and immediately report a suspected infestation to a veterinarian.
Screwworm poses a potentially devastating threat to the cattle industry.

He says there's evidence that the warming atmosphere creates more powerful thunderstorms and stronger updrafts.
But the bigger hailstones eventually come crashing down.
