My colleague and I had an animated conversation about earthworms today at work after I declared we should get a wormery for our vast volume of fruit and vegetable waste we accumulate every day.
I discovered many earthwormy facts as we dived into their soily, underground world:
- Earthworms are hermaphrodites.
- Typical earthworms have five pairs of hearts.
- Worms can regenerate their bodies.
- Worm casts are made up of worm poo!
But holy crap,
this was the best part of it all. I don't know whether to be amused or go vomit...
