Quote of the Day - The perfect host requires the perfect parasite. - Adapted from Lance Fusco.
What Next? Lice On The Endangered Species List?
There are a lot of real estate developers frustrated with the Endangered Species Act. Here in California, the Kangaroo rat has held up acres of real estate development.Hold on to your hat. You are about to get even more frustrated with the ESA, if some scientists have their way.
Ready for this? They've proposed adding lice as an endangered species. In fact, Doctor-in-waiting Noah Whiteman wants to add a number of parasites to the list.
Now before you get your knickers in a twist, don't expect these additions to happen anytime soon. There are, after all, criteria before a species makes it onto the list.
Thank God.
Next thing you know, someone will nominate tapeworms.
