Eosinophils are the leukocytes primarily responsible for fighting parasitic infections. While other types of leukocytes such as neutrophils and monocytes serve different functions, eosinophils specifically target and combat parasites. They are crucial for mounting an immune response against multicellular parasites like helminths. ;
