A parasite exists that can make a male crab believe it's a female crab. It forces the crab it infects to care for parasite eggs and even help release the larvae into the ocean to infect other crabs! These zombie crabs are never aware that they are infected nor do they harm the parasite. A fascinating look at the parasite-host relationship, this volume will keep readers turning pages with great interest. Full-color photographs of infected crabs offer captivating examples of how the parasite takes over the crab's body, while the main content also includes how it takes over the crab's mind.
