The most bizarre sea creature: The Ribbon worm • #shorts #seacreatures #animal #wildlife #ribbonworm #ribbon • A ribbon worm, also known as a nemertean, is a type of marine worm that belongs to the phylum Nemertea. They are usually long and flat, with a ribbon-like appearance, and can range in size from just a few millimeters to over 30 meters in length. • Ribbon worms are found in oceans all over the world and are known for their ability to capture prey using a special proboscis, which is a long, muscular tube that can be rapidly extended to capture prey. The proboscis is often tipped with sharp hooks or barbs that help to immobilize the prey. • Ribbon worms also have a unique ability to regenerate lost body parts, including their proboscis. This makes them a popular subject of study for scientists who are interested in understanding the mechanisms of regeneration. • While ribbon worms are generally harmless to humans, some species can produce toxins that are harmful to other marine animals. Additionally, some ribbon worms have been known to accidentally sting humans who come into contact with them.
