Anthropophilia 

This word can refer to a parasite that prefers human hosts over animal ones.
Same can be said for insects that prefer human blood over animal.

And even animals can have this, for example, some birds and animals have made courting attempts to humans but not to their own species (e.g. Ostriches, a panda, falcon birds especially, ect)

Basically, it means 'Preferring humans over animals'
Some mosquitoes have Anthropophilia and people are trying to figure out which ones are which to help with disease elimination efforts.

(Technically that sentence should be: Mosquitos are Anthropophilic but urban dictionary wants me to use the title word so... look I can't think of a sentence that would include that word, it's a very specific word ok!?)
