Distribution
In the United States, E. schneideri has been reported from various wild hosts in 18 states: Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota (in imported animals), Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, Washington and Wyoming. It has also been reported from elk and Black-tailed Deer in Canada.
Species of Elaeophora other than E. schneideri infest various mammals in Europe, Asia and Africa. One survey of Red Deer (Cervus e. elaphus), Fallow deer (Dama dama), as well as domestic sheep, cattle and goats in Czechoslovakia yielded no specimens of E. schneideri.

Famous quotes containing the word distribution:
“In this distribution of functions, the scholar is the delegated intellect. In the right state, he is, Man Thinking. In the degenerate state, when the victim of society, he tends to become a mere thinker, or, still worse, the parrot of other men’s thinking.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“My topic for Army reunions ... this summer: How to prepare for war in time of peace. Not by fortifications, by navies, or by standing armies. But by policies which will add to the happiness and the comfort of all our people and which will tend to the distribution of intelligence [and] wealth equally among all. Our strength is a contented and intelligent community.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“There is the illusion of time, which is very deep; who has disposed of it? Mor come to the conviction that what seems the succession of thought is only the distribution of wholes into causal series.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
