Did you know that 10% of all the world’s species are parasitic insects? Crazy, huh?
And there are even some parasites that change the sex of their host while inside of them.
Thank you Annie Dillard, for enlightening me.
You should read her book, Pilgrim at Tinker Creek. It’s actually not all about parasites. She talks a lot about the mystery of nature. My list of favorite quotes grew substantially after reading it.
