Real Life Carnivorous Worms!?
After playing Penumbra, I looked up predatory worms in real life, and was surprised to find out one example species. The Bobbit Worm is a sea dwelling worm that eats, among other things, fish! It's odd, worms are normally pictured as earthworms which are eaten by fish, and here we have a large worm eating fish!

However, does anyone know land going predatory worms?

Either way, it's neat to know their are real carnivorous worms in the world.

Once you know what others dismiss, your world will be revealed once again. Creating a new.
