Gịnị ka nsị dị n'ahụ ya na-eme?

The bootlace worm does not bite or sting, so it is poisonous rather than venomous. Its mucus contains a relatively strong neurotoxin, which attacks the nerves. The mucus is highly toxic, but tests showed low toxicity in human cells.1

Ihe ize ndụ nye mmadụ: ObereDị ka ịgba aṅụ ma ọ bụ nke na-erughị ya. Ọ fọrọ nke nta ka ọ ghara ịdị njọ nye mmadụ.

No human injuries or deaths from this worm are known. Its mucus is highly toxic, so it is best not to touch it.1

When handled, it releases large amounts of thick, toxic mucus, which it uses to deter predators.1

Eziokwu

1

In 1864, a specimen more than 55 metres long washed ashore after a severe storm near St Andrews, Scotland. It was longer than the lion's mane jellyfish.1

2

The bootlace worm is one of the longest known animals, and individuals have been recorded at up to 30 metres.1

3

Its mucus kills crabs and cockroaches in tests, and it could be used as an agricultural insecticide.1

4

Its body is very flexible and can stretch far beyond its usual length.1

Onye na-ekpughe akụkọ ụgha

Akụkọ ụgha: The bootlace worm regularly grows to over 55 metres long.

Eziokwu: Reports of worms over 55 metres may be animals that were stretched. Ribbon worm bodies are flexible, so measurements should be treated with caution. Individuals are known to reach up to 30 metres.1
