Answer:
Botulism is very rare. It can be transmitted in open wounds, it can be an infant disorder in those aged 2 to 6 months when it grows in their intestines, and it can be food borne growing in improperly canned foods. It is anaerobic, which means it thrives in areas without much oxygen, this is how it becomes dangerous in poorly canned foods.
