Deep sea worms are among nature's most enigmatic and mysterious creatures, so what if some of them are a bit awkwardly shaped? Comic for DW Environment. Did you know that many such deep sea creatures could be lost to geothermal mining even before they're described by science?
These are awesome. Pigbutt worm!
It actually exists! :D
Thank you, Melanie
Taxonomists can be mean sometimes. You made me look it up. Chaetopterus pugaporcinus. Which means they named it pigbutt in actual Latin.
In that case you'll enjoy my gallery of taxonomy cartoons all the more! :D
