This dreadful isopod parasite inhabits the mouths of fish, taking the place of their tongues and feeding on their blood.
The Cymothoa exigua, often known as the tongue-eating louse, is an isopod—a class of creatures that also includes crabs and shrimp—that spends the most of its time living within various fish's mouths. They are known to replace the tongue with themselves after removing it.
