EDITORS COMMENTS
Love is in the air, or should we say on the ground! Meet this adventurous couple of New Zealand Flatworms who decided to make their mark in the United Kingdom. These lovebirds were introduced to the UK from New Zealand back in the swinging 60s and have been causing quite a stir ever since. Measuring up to a whopping 20 cm in length, these flatworms are not your average worms. Now commonly found across Scotland, northern England, and Northern Ireland, they've become quite the celebrities among earthworm enthusiasts. But don't be fooled by their charming appearance - these guys are considered a threat to our beloved earthworm population as they feast on them for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Talk about being picky eaters! Caught here mid-mating session, it seems like these two have found true love amongst all that worm hunting. Who said romance was dead? Their behavior may be unconventional but hey, whatever floats their boat (or slithers their way). So next time you're out exploring nature's wonders in Europe's greenest corners, keep an eye out for these fascinating creatures. Just remember: admire them from afar and leave the matchmaking to Mother Nature herself!
