Ever heard of a zombie snail? 🧟‍♂️🐌😱 This weird and spooky phenomenon occurs when a parasitic worm called a Leucochloridium takes over a snails motor functions. By filling the eye stalks of the snail and moving wildly, the worm makes the snail look like a caterpillar, so birds will be more likely to eat them. The worm can then reproduce in the bird's gastrointestinal tract, eventually transmitting via its faeces! 📸 - Hannah Breach aka kate_and_hannah_art #HappyHalloween #SpookySeason #ZombieSnail #CreepyWildlife #CreepyCrawly
