Reveal the hoax to me, people. I must know. Please.
Thanks, James. For nothing.
UPDATE: Anonymous and Neil have identified this as a sea mouse. They are marine worms that inhabit moderately deep waters. This worm has no doubt lost its breath of life. And, what's better, I have nothing to fear, so long as my personal nightmare of sinking to the bottom of the ocean in a leaky submarine doesn't come true.
looks like a sea mouse to me, but I don't think they can live outside the water. so perhaps it is something similar? I am so curious!
ReplyDeleteSea Mouse (Aphrodita)! Pretty big one too. How it got that genus name is an, um, interesting story.
ReplyDeleteWow, anonymous and Neil. You're amazing. That looks exactly right.
ReplyDeleteI love it when you post completely new and previously unheard of beasts Wombat. I thought it was one of them nasty prickly caterpillars on steriods...
ReplyDeleteI aim to please, Jelo. I like it when I do that too. Especially when I didn't mean to.

ReplyDeleteAnonymous, I was thinking that too, I just didn't type it in!
ReplyDeleteclearly not a sea 'mouse' but a sea toupee!
ReplyDeleteLooks like what I pull out of my tub drain every now and then...YUCK!
ReplyDeleteMWAHAaaa... I don't know if you will see this so far into page two but I'm hoping to send you an amusing link about how... a certain gaming community reacted to that second last picture. ;-p VERY funny!
