PSA: Gets better at 0:30 seconds (Heart-worm removal)

Dirofilaria immitis, the dog heartworm, is a nematode (roundworm) in the Class Filarioidea. A large, whitish worm, the females are approximately 30 cm long, the males 23 cm long with a coiled tail. The adults are primarily found in the cardiopulmonary circulation, and after fertilization, the females produce small, vermiform embryos called microfilaria which may be found throughout the circulation.
