Definitely. In a _separate_ article, the scientist kills a “puppy-sized” Goliath birdeater spider. In this article, the scientist returns home with bot fly larvae in his arm.

However it worked and I learned something amazing! Clickbait seems to be a reality of this era.

I would have been a bit concerned about what other parasites or tropical deceases might have caught a ride beside the fly.

I'd say the title is a bit of a tongue in cheek clickbait parody. Also, unlike most clickbait this is well worth a read.
