That parasite also acts as a lure to attract other fish, so it's kinda a symbiotic relationship

[@xenophagia]

I don't think the shark would need a lure to catch fish, especially if it *_wasn't_* blind. So that's one hell of a crappy trade. I'd say that parasite is ripping these sharks off. I guess "kind of" were the key words in your statement lol.
