If you think Murder Hornets and Tegu are something to get up about DO NOT READ ABOUT those 12 inch carnivorous Hammerhead Worms from Malaysia recently found in the state of Georgia.

“Once the prey is mostly immobilized, the worm extends is pharynx from its body and secretes digestive enzymes, then sucks liquefied tissue into its branched gut using cilia. When digestion is complete, the worm’s mouth also serves as its anus.”

Holy crap! It’s like a bad alien sci-fi movie.
