Applied behavior analysis. Applied behavior analysis (ABA) is a scientific discipline concerned with analyzing the principles of learning and behavioral control, developing usable methods from these principles, and systematically applying these methods to change behavior of social significance.
A botfly, also written bot fly, bott fly or bot-fly in various combinations, is any fly in the family Oestridae. Their lifecycles vary greatly according to species, but the larvae of all species are internal parasites of mammals.
This parasite is the larval stage of the Cuterebra fly, who uses animal hosts to complete its life cycle. Cuterebra fly species are also known as botflies, and they are opportunistic in that they use the small mammals (dogs, cats, rabbits, squirrels, etc.) to complete their life cycle. The adult files are large and do not feed on or bite animals. Eggs are deposited around animal burrows and on plants, rocks, and other objects.
