Brain Eating Amoeba Killed Man: There are such species of animals in the world that even if they are around us, we would not be able to know. Generally insects are visible with our eyes but some creatures are so small that it is not possible to see them with naked eyes. There is one such parasite (Naegleria fowleri), which humans cannot see, but by mistake if it (Brain Eating Amoeba) finds shelter in our body, then it can also make a person sleep to death.
