See the giant worms that sharks have to call

This giant worm has a body length of about 18m with a diameter greater than that of sharks.

If you were asked to name a giant creature in the ocean, you probably would have answered that it was a whale or a shark, right?

But it will be extremely flawed if you don't mention this mysterious creature. It is a giant seaworm, with a length of about 18 meters and a large diameter like a shark.

The most rare and bizarre creature of the ocean of Pyrosome.

This is considered the most rare and bizarre species of ocean with scientific name Pyrosome . As described, Pyrosome is large, white, blue, even pale pink, often "dwelling" in warm tropical waters.

Looking so huge, but in fact, Pyrosome is a collection of thousands of tiny creatures, called Zooids .

Close up of "giant worms".

Zooids are very small and have a transparent body. The density in the shell is more than the inside, the middle part is almost empty. Each Zooids have their own tasks (such as self-defense, reproduction, eating .) that contribute to the whole population but must rely on each other to survive, together perform the survival function.

A special feature is that even though all zooids can be separated from the population, they gather together into a giant living entity, terrifying other marine creatures.

Zooids are very small and have a transparent body.

After observation, biologists said that one end of the expanded Pyrosome seaworm is responsible for sucking seawater into the body, taking food as plankton and pushing the filtered water out at the other end. .

With its giant body, large animals and adults can become good Pyrosome prey.

Adults can also become good Pyrosome prey.

Because the scientific world advises that if you accidentally encounter this seaworm in the sea, stay away from it if you don't want to lose your life.
