<p class="MsoNormal">WHOI’s Ocean Science Café - Invasion of the Ocean Body Snatchers<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In the Gulf of Mexico, a parasitic barnacle tunnels into mud crabs and turns them into zombie nursemaids for the parasite’s offspring. Fifty years ago it invaded the mid-Atlantic, where it now infects over 70% of crabs in some areas. Join
us to chat about how castrating parasites, biological invasions, and evolutionary biology collide in a real-life invasion of the body-snatchers lurking just beneath the surface.
