Fleas and ticks, and other paracites can usually feed of animals without killing them. I know this answer isn't good, but ain't it better than the last?

Yes a scavenger is just a type of organism, which means that this organism does not primarily catch its own food but instead feeds off the wast or kill of another organism.
i love my women in pantyhoses.
Parasites. Animals that live on other animals aren't always parasites. It depends on the type of symbiosis is taking place; commensalism (the animal obtains food and shelter from the other animal without hurting or helping it), mutualism (both animals benefit, sort of a 'you scratch my back i'll scratch yours' kind of thing), and parasitism (the name speaks for itself).
A parasite is an organism that lives in or on another organism (host) and feeds off its resources without necessarily killing it. A carnivore is an organism that primarily feeds on meat from other animals. While both can be predatory, parasites rely on a host for survival, while carnivores actively hunt and consume prey.

If you count bacteria and viruses, a virus tends to feed off bacteria.

A parasitic relationship occurs when one organism lives on or inside another organism and benefits by feeding off of it, often harming the host in the process.
When an organism lives off of another organism, it is called parasitism. The organism benefiting is the parasite, while the one being harmed is the host.
The tapeworm feeds off the host organism and hurts this body. This means the tapeworm benefits, but the host organism is hurt from the rlationship.

one organsim lives off of,feeds upon,and harms another organism. ex. dog is harmed and flea is fed.
Heterotrophic- it feeds off the food that is ingested by the organism.
An organism that feeds off once-living organisms is called a scavenger. Scavengers consume decaying organic matter from dead plants or animals to obtain nutrients for survival. Examples of scavengers include vultures, hyenas, and beetles.
