Parasites

Watch this person!!
This is a mammal intestine tapeworm. This species occurs mainly in rabbits, cats, and rodents, but sometimes humans.

The adult tapeworm you see above has a “scolex” with suckers and hooks that anchor to the intestinal wall of the host. While the tapeworm grows in the host’s intestine, body segments called proglottids bud off its head and neck regions. Tapeworms have no digestive system of their own, but absorb through their skin partially digested food from the host’s intestine. It causes diarrhea, weight loss and abdominal discomfort. Adult tapeworms may grow 5-10 meters in length.

Some human beings though, behave like this parasite, causing nausea, heartache, anger, and can breakup communities. It feeds on the generosity of others while telling its host sob stories that will enable the parasite to feed of whatever the host earns. An adult human parasite can grow up to 1.80 meters in height.

Reminds me of a diver….
