post interesting things about the animal kingdom that you just learned about or possibly want to learn more about or just weird/interesting shyt


what yall know about zombie snails









Leucochloridium paradoxum

The worm in its larval, miracidia stage, travels into the digestive system of a snail to develop into the next stage, sporocyst. The sporocyst grows into long tubes to form swollen "broodsacs" filled with tens to hundreds of cercariae. These broodsacs invade the snail's tentacles (preferring the left, when available), causing a brilliant transformation of the tentacles into a swollen, pulsating, colorful display that mimics the appearance of a caterpillar or grub

imagine if they started developing a taste for human eye balls they could easily be the bugs of the apocolypse

Sazima’s Tarantula sort of new species discovered recently



it just looks cool though that blue

Amazon river dolphin one of the largest in fresh water which is only slightly larger than humans


there seems to be some demonic history of them though

Amazonian folklore includes mention of shapeshifters called encantados. Their natural form is the boto, but at night they are able to transform into beautiful men and women who often show up parties, seduce people, and produce illegitimate children with humans.

It has been suggested that the myth arose partly because dolphin genitalia bear a resemblance to those of humans.[10] Others believe the myth served (and still serves) as a way of hiding the incestuous relations which are quite common in some small, isolated communities along the river.

"We never expected to find a new species there," says John Hart, the lead scientist of the project, "but the Lomami basin is a very large block that has had very little exploration by biologists."
