Brown tick, eight legs, parasitic.
A close-up image of an engorged tick. The tick, likely a species of Ixodes, is the subject, and its engorged body is the focus. The image is likely for educational purposes, to show the appearance of a tick that has fed on a host. The tick's engorgement is a sign that it has recently fed and is potentially carrying diseases.
