Strange creatures know how to spray spider webs with taps

Recently, IFLScience has posted a video of a strange creature capable of spraying network layers like spider webs, white and sharp taps that can grow, shrinking with strong attraction.

Through research, experts say, this strange creature is called Nemertean . This is said to be one of the creatures with strange body structure residing in the Antarctic ice sheets .

Nemertean worms are covered with a layer of mucus outside the body.This mucus is like a lubricant, making it easy for them to crawl through the mud.

With mature worms, the Nemertean worm has a similar appearance to the human colon. The width is only about 2.54 cm wide but Nemertean's length is truly remarkable.

Experts have not been able to accurately measure the Nemertean body length because they can stretch the body up to 10 times and quickly shrink themselves when in danger.

One researcher said that the Nemertean worm can be up to 30 meters long, even 60 meters - longer than a blue whale. When hungry, the Nemertean worm can eat whatever it sees.

The elongation of the Nemertean body also surprised many people with their small bodies but they could swallow worms, fish, crustaceans, snails and even boys - body-width creatures. larger than many narrow bodies in their bodies.

Another special feature of the Nemertean worm is that they have a sharp tap, used to stab the prey . This sharp hose is used to stab the prey, along with a small amount of tetrodotoxin - the poison in the puffer fish is released, causing the prey to be paralyzed, unable to move. At this time, the Nemertean worm only had to enjoy its achievements.
