>Probably the most "And I Must Scream" moment in mother nature. Another contender for that crown is the tongue eating louse or Cymothoa exigua. It attaches itself to a fish's tongue. Then, the true horro begins. 'The parasite severs the blood vessels in the fish's tongue, causing the tongue to fall off. It then attaches itself to the stub of what was once its tongue and becomes the fish's new tongue' I'd rather be a fungal thrall than have to a parasite take over as my tongue https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cymothoa_exigua https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cymothoa_exigua
