Hi guys :), somtimes i just go around the internet looking for new things and i like to look for animals with some special traits or abilitys (just try imagining having that ability yourself) and i found some interesting ones , animals that turns other animals into zombie servants.
I'm going to share with you guys some of the interesting ones hope you enjoy it .
green-banded broodsac (scientific name Leucochloridium paradoxum) :
normal snail :
infected snail :
This is a parasite typicaly found inside the eyes of land snails throbing like a lively catarpilar the perfect meal for birds.They want to be eaten ,However,we'll be asking ourselves why would they do that ,well actually the truth is they will mature and release there eggs inside the birds rectum and be released inside his feces to be eaten by a snail later and the cycle begins again .But that's not the good part yet as the snail is a nocturn creature and birds aren't, obviously these parasites devolped a mind controlling feature they controll the snail to go out in the open in the middle of day to be eaten (likely for the snail only his eyes are eaten which he will regrow later but he can be a victime again in the future)
Hope that was interesting and informative for you , look forward to the next ones.
