@The_Episiarch@SFriedScientist With Jonathan Swift quote from your post in mind, can you think of hyperparasites that don't have parasites? -
@OtherSociology@SFriedScientist or virophages that kinda infect mimivirus which infects Acanthamoeba which infects humans opportunistically -
@The_Episiarch@SFriedScientist Thanks for the pea crab and acanthamoeba examples. Satellite viruses - what a trip!
