Cymothoa exigua, or the tongue-eating louse, is a parasitic isopod of the family Cymothoidae. It enters fish through the gills. The female attaches to the tongue, while the male attaches to the gill arches beneath and behind the female. Females are 8–29 mm (0.3–1.1 in) long and 4–14 mm (– in) wide. Males are about 7.5–15 mm (0.3–0.6 in) long and 3–7 mm (– in) wide.[1] The parasite severs the blood vessels in the fish's tongue, causing the tongue to fall off. It then attaches itself to the remaining stub of the tongue and becomes the fish's new “tongue“. 2/? 00:00 01 - Odaxelagnia // The One 02:19 02 - kyou1110 // _STRANGE_ 04:42 03 - ISOpussy // Sadacore 08:14 04 - Lil Kevo 303 // Hikari_Yaki_Tori_205s214f 10:40 05 - Golden Boy // Brain aneurysm 13:20 06 - Acrnym // Knife . . . the volume mixing isn't weird it's all in your head
