A Gummy Worm: A Short Story

In the book There's a Hair in my Dirt! A Worm's Story by Gary Larson, a worm father teaches his son about nature by telling him the story of a human named Harriet, who had a deep love for nature. She goes out one day and takes a walk through the forest, taking time to appreciate the beautiful things she sees along the way. Although her actions ultimately harm the forest's animals, her only intention was to appreciate nature and help the forest. Her attitude toward nature is positive, but her actions toward nature are very harmful.

We over around the lake a lot because how we weren't really hardly getting any bites on our fishing pools. And I had only gotten one bite and when I pulled it in the fish was only a little bit bigger than an orange. But it was

Just last month, a deadly worm was found in not one, but four locations in the U.S. state of Florida. This worm, until recently, was documented in only twenty-one countries, most of which were island nations. Although the New Guinea Flatworm may seem as a highly dangerous predator, it is only about two inches in length and mainly targets snails for its nutrition. These worms are not harmful to humans, but they will feast on any soft creature in the soil. In order to eat snails or any critters with a hard shell, the New Guinea Flatworm latches itself onto the shell’s opening and then spits out its own stomach through the opening in its belly. This allows an acidic goo to dissolve the snail’s flesh and the worm can continue on with its meal by swallowing both its stomach and the snail.

The time I got a 23 in 5 1/2 lb Largemouth Bass in Florida was awesome. When the Bass first struck my frog lure it jumped into the air and splashed down into the water. It fought very hard and tangled the line around the lily pad stems. All I could hear was my line being pulled out by the fish. I yelled at all my family to get outside. When they got out I was struggling to to get the fish out of the weeds. I eventually worked it out of the weeds and into clear water. My grandma was yelling because of how big it was. My dad got in the water and lifted it out. We filled a tote with water and put it in. It barely fit! I named it “Tank” because of how hard it hit my lure. We kept it in the tote until we found someone that could make a replica

When I was younger, I believed fishing was all about having luck and I fished the same way every day, spending nearly seven hours a week hoping that eventually I’d hook into that big bass I dreamed of. As I grew older and gained experience, I learned that fishing wasn't based on luck at all and instead by skill and technique. I started focusing on how the fish behaved on

I caught 3 crappies 1 bass 9 sunfish. The bass I caught was big and nice but we could not keep it because it was not the time to keep bass so I was a little mad. But the good thing I caught was the 3 crappies and 9 sunfish and we caught a butt load of fish. When me and my brother

N2 control worms (M=6.67, SD=1.53) had statistically significant more tail thrashes than unc-54 control worms (M=0.67, SD=0.58), p=.002. There were also statistically significant more tail thrashes in N2 sugar worms (M=8.33, SD=2.08) than unc-54 sugar worms (M=2.00, SD=1.00), p=.001. There was no statistically significant difference observed between N2 stevia (M=3.00, SD=1.73) and unc-54 stevia (M = 1, SD = 0.00).

Glow worms are sometimes a type of fly, but most glow worms are actually beetles.

    One reason why Spencer deserves the award “Catch of the Day” is because he uses highly efficient strategies to catch fish.  Spencer knows fish are extremely sensitive, so he attempts to be as sneaky as possible.  Usually, he tiptoes onto the deck and tries to not make a sound.  When he lowers the fishing line, Spencer does so carefully so fish don’t sense the vibrations.  Additionally, Spencer uses buoys to help him fish.  They stabilize the line and make fishing simpler.  They also minimize movement, that way the fish can close in on the bait.  Essential tools and planning are crucial to Spencer’s mastery of catching fish.

We divided up 180 Canadian Nightcrawler worms (Lumbricus terrestris) evenly between 10, 1,100 mL plastic pots labeled 1, 2, and, 3. Each number contained a different food source for each group of worms. Each pot, containing 20 nightcrawlers, stored one quart of Walmart potting soil. The 3 containers labeled “1” contained a commercial worm food named Magic Worm Food. 3 other containers labeled “2” contained sliced up red apples. The last 3 container labeled “3” contained shredded up lettuce as the food source. The 10th control, used as a control, contained 1 quart of potting soil, no worms, no food. The worms received water 3 times a week for two separate weeks. After giving the worms 10 evenly distributed squirts of water, the soil was churned

Saturday in desember 2015 , I went fishing on maninjau lake ,with my brother. I cast under our own dock with a rubber worm.

The worm was long and thin, 140 segments long. The dorsal side was a dark, brownish color with the black stripe of the dorsal blood vessel visible. The ventral side, in contrast, was light and slightly pink. Its head was darker and thicker, capped by a ligh, yellowish clitellum.

Then one of the tip ups went

Worms are slimy and are odd organisms to look at. Can you imagine them being in your body, feeding off of the food you are consuming? There are many types of worms that can make their way into the human body and thrive on our nutrients that we need for everyday life. The worm Enterobius vermicularis, also commonly known as the pinworm, enjoys harboring themselves in children generally under the age of eighteen years old (Jaboury, 2015). Children are more prone to getting these pinworms because of how often they are putting their hands and other objects into their mouths. They are not aware that they could be putting dirt that a cat just defecated on, or that they might be drinking contaminated water from a stream or river. Many children are

Typically, the female glow worms lays between 50 and 100 eggs in moist areas, over a period of a few days. The tiny glow worm eggs are yellow in colour and can take between 3 and 6 weeks to hatch depending on the climate (the warmer it is, the faster the glow worm eggs will
