Parasites

Crash Course Zoology will take a rapid deep dive into the weird and wonderful biology of animals. Host, wildlife ecologist, and conservation scientist, Dr. Rae Wynn-Grant will guide us across the tree of life as we endeavor to answer what makes an animal an animal anyway?

Parasites

Season 1 Episode 11 | 13m 4s | CC

Nearly every environment on Earth — and that includes animals — is home to some kind of parasite. We explore parasites not just because they’re an essential part of their ecosystems, but also because by studying them we can learn more about their hosts and even their shared evolution and ecology.
