Hello, all mystery analyzing experts!
Most of us think that it must be tigers, leopards or sharks... that are really dangerous animals.
It was a huge mistake.
A tiny worm or a tiny larva with a modest body is in the list of remarkable dangerous
animals that few people know about.
The first worm is the one that, when touched,
can be much more poisonous than the poisonous snake.
What are they?
I won't let you wait anymore.
Let's explore the video today
10 creatures that are more terrifying than poisonous snakes
Please follow us!
Number 10: Eulagisca gigantea
Eulagisca Gigantea is a silkworm of the Polynoidae
family, which has an average length of about 12 cm and often lives in Antarctica.
At first glance, its legs are like soft hairs but if touched, you will be easily poisoned.
The mouth of this worm is only about 2 cm wide,
but the sharp fangs can catch the enemy easily.
But so far, no-one has been able to pinpoint their exact ways it hunts, because they live
deep in the Antarctica and partly because no one has the courage to test them.
Number 9: Nemertean worms
The Nemertean worm is the species that can
be said to be the strangest.
They look like someone's large intestines dropped into the ocean.
They live under the ice in Antarctica.
When hungry, the Nemertean worm can eat anything they see.
Nemertean has a trunk but it is not as fragile as that of butterflies you often see.
Nemertean trunk is sharp to stab the prey, making the prey unable to move and then just
gradually eat the prey.
Number 8: Bobbit worms
This is a species of predatory worms, aquatic
animals of the Polychaete class that inhabit the ocean floor.
Bobbit worm has a length of more than 10 feet, about 3m.
Its fur is very toxic, which can permanently paralyze the nerves of those who touch it.
Most of the time, they stay in caves on the ocean floor, leaving only a part of the body
protruding to catch prey, mainly fishes, and hiding their remaining long body into the
ocean floor, covered with gravel, mud or coral.
It uses the five antennae to detect and attack the approaching prey.
This species is considered an omnivore.
When ambushing, only 1/10 of the body is raised on the sand surface.
Their mouths are always open to get ready for the prey.
When the antennae detect the prey, it immediately pounces, tugging at it even though the prey
is several times larger.
How barbaric and terrifying!
Number 7: Saddleback caterpillars
Saddleback caterpillar is one of the most
common caterpillars with very painful bites.
With a length of only about 2.5 cm, both Saddleback caterpillars heads are dark brown with horns
of many sharp spines.
The middle body is green with two white edges.
There is also an oval dot between the body that looks like a saddle.
Saddleback caterpillars cause a really uncomfortable feeling when touched.
Their spines are placed with extremely strong venom glands.
The victim will have lots of pains when touched, the affected area immediately swells, coming
with nausea and severe uncomfortable rashes.
Still, it is difficult to detect.
Sometimes it takes all day to find the cause.
These dangerous caterpillars like hibiscus and palm trees.
So please be careful!
Number 6: Velvet worms
It is a worm that is good at disguising.
If you can detect this worm, then you really have a very good eye.
No fangs, no big size, no hiding under sand, these velvet worms are soft and small, often
living in trees.
It has short and big legs without joints, so it does not move fast.
However, we should not underestimate it.
When it finds prey, it shoots a fluid into the prey that makes it unable to move and
it just needs to go ahead and enjoy the prey.
Through the hunting of this worm, we can see that it is similar to the hunting of spiders.
Number 5: Hemeroplanes triptolemus
Considered the most fearsome disguising master,
they turn themselves into scary snakes.
Also, thanks to this "transformation" skill, the caterpillars can camouflage to avoid enemies.
To avoid being eaten by predators, the caterpillar deliberately keeps its entire foot inside
the body and then performs a head bulge.
With the available spots, this caterpillar shapes the head of a snake.
They startle anyone who sees it because of the large head with four protruding eyes that
looks scary.
This caterpillar belongs to the Sphingidae family, which are found in England and Ireland.
To increase the fear, this worm is also capable of spraying silk, like a venomous snake spraying venom.
The worm also mimics the threatening behavior of venomous snakes, when its "snakehead" tail
is always high and wiggling, as if ready to attack.
This is enough to make other animals, even humans, afraid to stay away.
Number 4: Carnivorous caterpillars
Most caterpillars have a strange beauty.
However, this is different.
It is the larva of Carnivorous caterpillars.
The caterpillars have a fairly short lifespan and they spend most of their time eating leaves
and other plants.
But this caterpillar is not a "vegetarian" species.
It is a "professional assassin".
On the island of Hawaii, 18 of 20 caterpillars evolve into predators.
They hang themselves with hind legs, disguising as branches.
The retracted forelegs clutch their heads, concealing on the leaves and waiting for other
insects perching on the leaf.
And this fruitfly would never expect it to have no chance of survival.
Number 3: Perga Affinis larva
Looking at a pile of these larvae, if I was
given more money, then I wouldn't dare to touch them.
The larvae are often mistaken for caterpillars.
Perga Affinis often hide in the trunks of the trees.
They release yellowish substances that smell like eucalyptus oil.
Especially if the substance gets into the eyes, it can hurt and even damage our eyes.
So please don't get closed to them!
Now, this is the most exciting part of the video, that is “ask and answer” time!

Now it’s time to reveal the answer
Number 2: Giant red leech
The scientific name is Mimobdella Buettikoferi.
Scientists claim that they are the largest leeches in the world.
This event attracted strong attention from the public.
Giant red leech Kinabalu is an endemic species of the Kinabalu forest, Borneo, in Indonesia,
where the altitude ranges from 2500 - 3000m.
Unlike their relatives, usually only about 3cm - 7cm long and living underwater and in
muds, Kinabalu leeches live on land.
The red Kinabalu has a length of up to 30cm, even 40cm.
Anyone who meets them is terrified and obsessed.
The Kinabalu leeches survive by eating giant green earthworms.
With a length of only about 30cm, the Kinabalu leeches can still feed on a blue worm that
is nearly 3 times longer than their body.
This is very special in the animal world.
Giant red leeches eat their prey like pythons.
Seeing the way of it swallowing prey is really haunting.
Number 1: Lonomia silkworm moth
At first glance, Lonomia Obliqua does not
look much different from the other common moths.
But under the harmless appearance, the Lonomia Obliqua is truly a dangerous insect: they
can cause extremely serious and even fatal wounds through contact.
Their fur is secreted a powerful anticoagulant,
which is considered more dangerous than venomous snakes.
This horrible species lives in the rainforests of South America and every year there are
several fatal cases caused by this insect,
especially in southern Brazil where they are
often found on the trunks of trees.
Lonomia Obliqua is perfect at camouflage and even when people are wary of them, they still
accidentally touch them.
Most cases happen when adventurers rely on tree trunks and accidentally come in contact
with this insect...
Only looking at them makes me go goosebumps, let alone getting close to them.
Scary, isn't it?
These small creatures are extremely dangerous Have I forgotten any other dangerous species?
