The Squidworm (Teuthidodrilus) is a worm that thinks its a squid! With hilarious results. I mean, horrifying results.

These bizarre polychaetes could ONLY come from the deep sea (or a feverish and tormented imagination).

They swim quite far above the ocean floor by waving their bristles around like dozens of tiny oars.

They reach less than 10 cm long, but that doesn’t include 10, huge tentacles that sprout out of their face and can each get longer than their body!

Good to know they’ve got the right priorities.
