It's a bizarre creature that survives by eating its hosts' tongue and then attaching itself inside the mouth.

The sea-dwelling parasite attacks fish, burrows into it, and then devours its tongue. After eating the tongue, the parasite proceeds to live inside the fish's mouth.

Okay, the blind mole rat is now no longer the most disturbing animal out there.

This reminds me of the role of the mass media in controlling the proletariat.

Love that picture, as a matter of fact, it's the wallpaper on my PC at home. :lol:

I read about this thing last night and just said, "Ewwww." Yep, that about covers it.

As long as we're getting our geek on, does anyone else read "Alien Loves Predator"? Hilarious webcomic. Roommates in New York.

Just sayin...
