Coastal News Today | Africa - Parasite which bites off a fish s tongue and then Replaces it is discovered by a shocked student in South Africa

It is an idea so horrifying that it sounds made up: A parasite which bites off its host s tongue and then replaces it, living inside its mouth for the rest of its life. But in fact, the tongue-eating louse is real and lives inside the mouths of fish - one of which was discovered recently by a shocked student in South Africa. Don Marx, 27, from Cape Town, was fishing near Cape Agulhas when he hooked the six-pound carpenter fish and discovered the stowaway inside its jaws. Marx, who happens to study marine biology, had heard of the lice but never seen one in the wild - so snapped a picture to document the moment.
