BOBBIT WORM (Eunice aphroditois)

The bobbit worm, also known as the sand striker or trap-jaw worm, is an ambush predator. It lives mainly in the Atlantic Ocean, but can be found in the Indo-Pacific. It hunts by hiding in soft sediment rock, and once its antennae detect prey, it emerges and grabs its prey with its sharp mandibles. It has strong grip, to the point where some prey get snapped in half!

It can also regenerate its body from any split. This is my favorite worm!
