He shouldn't have eaten that big snail!
So many people have been traumatized for the rest of their lives by that particularly nasty brutal scene of the captive safari porter being trussed up in a crouching position, covered with a thick layer of red clay, breathing tubes inserted into his nostrils and mouth, hoisted over a roaring fire and roasted slowly for the entertainment of the the onlookers.
As an adult I'm more horrified by the scene of Cornel Wilde feasting on that large, African snail, the species and genus of I do not know.
I get my heebie jeebies after reading the book, "Parasite Rex", 2000. This informative book details the global evolution and spread of planetary parasites that infest every nook and cranny of earth's ecosystems all the way inside our bodies. Go check out the cable station, Animal World's, "Monsters Inside Me", about people in the U.S. infected by peculiarly nasty parasites that can happen to the cleanest and most careful of us. All this information makes you want to jump out of your skin.
Snails in particular are infested with a toxic brew of various parasites. Some of these parasites are multi-host, meaning, they ingeniously and diabolitically go through their life cycle through a succession of hosts. Usually a succeeding host devours the preceeding host. But sometimes a succeeding host becomes infected by, contact infestation, or devouring the waste product of the preceeding host, or some other bodily excretion. The parasites infesting snails worldwide are just as diverse. Some will end up in your GI tract. Others will settle down in your liver and bloodstream. The real nasty ones cohabit your brain. The worst parasites are the ones that are evolved for different hosts but accidentally end up in a human body where the parasite becomes lost and confused and cannot exit normally as it would in its normal host, for example, a cat or a frog. This 'lost' type of parasite does the most damage inside your body as it struggles to find its way out.
