Many fish-eating birds are infected by internal parasites that live also in fishes, the Ash being the primary and the bird the secondary host of the same species of parasite; the bird infects itself by devouring the flesh of an infected fish, then through its excrement distributes '.he eggs of the parasite to the water again, the young from such eggs then entering fishes. But in this cycle the bird does no more harm to the fish than the fish to the bird; and it is questionable whether destruction of the birds would materially lessen the number of fish parasites.
