Boopic

/boʊˈɑːpɪk/ adjective

Definition

Relating to or characteristic of Boophilus ticks or tick-related diseases; relating to cattle tick parasitism.

Etymology

From 'Boophilus' (the genus name for cattle ticks) plus the adjectival suffix '-ic' (relating to), creating a medical or veterinary term.

Kelly Says

Boopic plague—disease transmission by these ticks—was once so severe that it could devastate entire herds, driving ranchers to adopt rotational grazing and eventually leading to the first coordinated international animal disease eradication program.
