Wow there’s these animals burying their poop in the dirt, while this dirt inhabitant’s pooping up to the surface. It’s like, so poetic man.

So what we've got here is a worm, that anchors its butt onto the surface of the sand, using its own dried poop. Now, scientists are still trying to figure out how it got there. Did it dig the hole backwards? Did it done turned around so that it can breathe from the hole in front of its face? What will happen when the scientists put the whole thing under a hydraulic press? Read the article to find out.

Figure 2's legend sounds a bit like lyrics to a kid's song. But you gotta say it fast and rhythmically.
