Perhaps even the grown-up Na were unsuitable hosts as well as the juvenile Skrits. I remember reading that some species were unable to be infested because they didn't have centrally located brains. Could this also have been the case with the Na?

That's an interesting thought. Though i'm thinking a Yeerk could probably just stretch itself to accommodate the brain when sinking into the Na's crevices. Hmm...maybe there's a limit to the Yeerk's elasticity in that scenario? After all, it is a living being not magical silly putty XD

that would be interesting. maybe one wouldn't need to control the whole brain?

Though I think you'd need both the memories and the motor functions...if the Yeerk was hoping to successfully play their host to a tee...if not then I suppose you'd only really need sole control over motor functions.

so maybe there's a limit to what a yeerk can do. they should mention that in classifying their species, like the Hawjabrawn.

I don't think they can infest them because the Na are too erratic and annoying to be controlled, even for the Yeerks.

i would think that yeerks don't have brains in a sense that we would think of them.

but seeing as what they can do, i would say their entire body is the brain (the other oragans just have a duel function)
