One family's unique meal of black bear meat sent several members to the hospital.

It was supposed to be a celebration, but one family's unique meal of black bear meat sent several members to the hospital instead.The celebration happened in summer 2022, according to the account in the latest edition of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report. An extended family – unnamed in the report – came from across the country for a reunion in South Dakota.

Blood tests showed that he had eosinophilia, a condition involving too many eosinophils in the body, a signal to doctors that someone could have allergies, cancer or parasites.It wasn't until his second trip to the hospital that doctors learned the man had eaten bear meat and suspected that he may have trichinellosis. Tests soon confirmed that that was the case, and tests were recommended for the other family members.
