People infected with a common parasite found in cat feces are more likely to display entrepreneurial behaviors and have a reduced “fear of failure” when starting a new business, according to an international study published in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B.

The parasite—known as Toxoplasma gondii—infects a staggering 30-50% of the world’s population, although it rarely causes illness in healthy adults. Despite this, “Toxo” has increasingly been associated with a number of intriguing behaviors in humans and other vertebrates.
