- the_d, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I think I speak for everyone when I say: Fish have tounges?
- Tobey, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Oh my god! That is so freaking disgusting! +digg.
- theenginedriver, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1That's just what fish get for not developing dextrous appendages by now. They've had all the time in the world (no pun intended).
- doorman444, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"scientists say the creature does not pose any threat to humans and only attaches itself to fish tongues."
and we all know that scientist are never wrong (sarcasm) - bigbooger, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3Imagine a human penis bug that did the same thing... LOL
- hyperation, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1omfg, I am having a red snapper tonight for dinner, better f*cking check the mouth.
- CognitiveRes, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Does this mean it tastes for the fish? Is it a symbote?
- monolith, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I know it says to not freak out.... but I'm Freaked Out!
- dhughes, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1 I think politicians have had this parasite for many years.
- Reimomo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1[quote]Perhaps a new diet method... The bug eats half of you Big Mac. Patent office next![quote]
yeah, downside though. when your symbiote tongue is finished with half your big mac, it craps in your throat... - Poosha, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Perhaps a new diet method... The bug eats half of you Big Mac. Patent office next!
- JamokeMan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Sweet.

- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0wow, another food scare.
- spadin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0So I guess the movie Kung Pow: Enter The Fist was not so far-fetched after all :)
- vashavoc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0A double take was in order when I read this article. One of the most bizarre things Ive read to date. Nice find.
- ajaykilkenny, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0ahhhhhhhhhh i knew it the aliens are coming. first they take the fish then the..... things that eat the fish and eventually will eat all humans tongues and will use mind control devices to sneak into our government and take over the world.
Yeah im not paranoid at all lol - steiny1, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This story had better make diggnation, or else I have lost faith in all that is good an pure in the world.
- Stimpy-, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0:o. Ew.
- lollerskates, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I say parasite. Of course it doesn't taste for it.
- doant, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1jikes . imagine it taking over your tong and and than its taking over the way you speak. You are walking trough the park suddenly you see a nice girl and instead of saying hello you say: oh what a delicious tong you have can I taste it OK never mind weird fantasy. digg for me
- PacoBell, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Heh, this story kinda reminded me of Blade of the Immortal and those bloodworms ;)
- NumberXVII, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Aw; it didn't say what part of California (coast)...
- Ocarina, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0That's just freaky...
- GeneralChang, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"The bugs are usually found off the coast of California, so it's possible the fish was imported to the UK."
Anyone know the name of it? they dont mention it in the article. - spartan777, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0wow. what an amazing animal.
- Jugend, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0That's pretty damn gross.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The name of the bug is Cymothoa exigua,a type of Sea Louse.
CHECH THIS OUT! http://www.bogleech.com/bio-para.html - martanio, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0That picture and the thought of this insect disturbs me to my core!! I don't want to see that picture again.... on the other hand video would be different! hehe
- feralfighter, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I feel sorry for the fish.
- Yaku83, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0It looks like a Metroid (from Super Metroid for those who never played it).
- Xertion, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The world of animals is simply to odd to phanthom. I mean a person would be hard pressed to make up this thing, forget the fact that such a thing actually exists!
- shanamistress, on 04/29/2008, -0/+0Who knew Fish had tongues? Now I want a piece of that!
Shana | http://worldkayakblogs.com/arblife/ - mushoo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0@Poosha--totally dude!
@reimomo--you could always genetically engineer the symbiote to crap ice cream or mouth wash, or both. - Corny, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This is Diggnation material. Too bad albertpacino didn't submit it.. :P
- zbeast, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Oh my f-in god that's sick. eeeeeeuuuuuuuu, thanks alot I was going to go out in get sushi today for lunch. I don't think I want to see any fish for a while.
- ralcocer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Reminds me of Kung Pow.
- dbr_onix, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Screw saying anything constructive : eww

- Lowtech, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Goa'uld
A parasitical species, the Goa'uld take host bodies -- and seek galactic domination

http://www.gateworld.net/omnipedia/races/g/goauld.shtml - olivejuice, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0omigosh that's ughhhh!!! ***shivers***

- xzen54321, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This kinda weird crap is why I don't swim in the sea.
- sleepnmojo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Dr Jim Brock of the Horniman Museum.
I should be working there - Mongoose, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Whoah, that's really cool. Great digg.
- iamserious, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This is so infinitely weird (and simultaneously disgusting). Digg+, of course, and all sorts of sci-fi allusions come to mind (Douglas Adams, the think in the Star Trek movie with Kirk's son, etc), but whoa! I am freaked out. Two heads are better than one and all, but whoa and whoa.
- jmdajr, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0yikes!
