Scavengers are animals that usually eat the "leftovers", like dead animals, trash, etc., they search for anything that could edible. Parasites are living things that rely on other living things for food, shelter, etc., and without a "host", they usually cannot survive. They suck off of others, usually by living inside of them, on them, or around them.
