Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hydatid Disease in Its Clinical Aspects Almost every living creature is preyed upon by some carnivorous foe, and in not a few cases the parasite itself is liable to be attacked by other parasites. Though there is great variation in the manner and degree in Which the different animals are attacked, yet neither the size nor the mode of life of the animal gives immunity from the attack of these foes. Man himself, placed as he is at the head of the animal kingdom, would appear to be' the host of a greater number of parasitic forms of life than any other animal, although it is admitted that new genera and species are constantly being added to the list and that time may deprive him of the doubtful distinction of being the most liberal entertainer of these unbidden guests.
