  • [00:00:00.130](cheerful music)
  • [00:00:05.911]Every animal that's ever been studied has parasites.
  • [00:00:09.250]Parasites are the most common mode of life on the earth,
  • [00:00:11.992]really very, very common.
  • [00:00:20.114]In our database,
  • [00:00:21.064]there are approximately now 100,000 records.
  • [00:00:24.802]So, we store the parasites either in a vial
  • [00:00:27.714]or on a slide.
  • [00:00:29.388]And with a single entry in the database
  • [00:00:32.056]there can be several vials or several slides associated,
  • [00:00:36.861]so we have at least 150,000 slides
  • [00:00:41.596]and approximately 50,000 vials.
  • [00:00:44.797]We have parasites from all over the world,
  • [00:00:48.082]including the Arctic areas, Antarctica,
  • [00:00:51.336]from land and from oceans.
  • [00:00:53.779]About every 15 years, the size of the collection is doubled.
