| Just saying "parasitic mind control" sounds ominous!! |
Leucochloridium is a parasite that gets into an Amber snail's eye stalks when the snail eats bird droppings on a tree branch or leaf. The parasitic worm eventually takes control of the snail's brain and guides the creature up tot eh tops of the tress, into the open, where it's consumed by a bird. The cycle begins again as the worm's eggs grow inside the stomach of the bird, which inevitably excretes onto a tree branch or leaf, which in turn is eaten by the snail. True nature and pretty creepy!
