Liver fluke infections cause severe damage in livestock from the time the animal ingest metacercaria (Infectious stage) until it is controlled (or until the adult liver fluke dies and this can take up to two years)
In cattle, about ± 25% of the metacercaria ingested reach the liver within 2 weeks to 85 days after ingestion.
In the case of sheep, up to as much as 80% of the metacercariae reach the liver during this time. The rest migrate through the body and cause damage to other organs.
