# No
they are specialised to the mamalian gut

# The head of a tapeworm is called the 'scolex'
and under a microscope it looks like a bunch of fish-hooks.

I'm not even sure tapeworms have an anus as the bottom tail segements contain eggs & drop off into the gut to be passed out.

Both of these traits are specialised to the mamalian peristaltic gut mechanism.
