SPH-3429 - The Epic Battle of the Flatworm and the Earthworm! Who Will Win?
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this thrilling wildlife snapshot, we witness a nail-biting showdown between two unlikely opponents. On one side, we have the formidable SPH-3429 - a New Zealand Flatworm with an insatiable appetite for earthworms. Towering at an impressive 20 cm in length, this alien invader has made its mark on Scotland, northern England, and Northern Ireland. But don't count out our underdog just yet! Enter the humble earthworm - a champion of soil health and ecosystem balance. Unaware of its impending doom, it becomes prey to SPH-3429's predatory prowess. Captured by photographer Steve Hopkin, this extraordinary moment showcases nature's eternal struggle between predator and prey. With bated breath, we wonder if the earthworm will escape or succumb to its flat nemesis. While some may consider SPH-3429 a pest due to its voracious appetite for earthworms (their main course), there is no denying that it adds an element of excitement to our ecosystems. This invasive species from down under has certainly left its mark on European soil! So let us marvel at this image as it reminds us that even in the animal kingdom, survival can be both fierce and fascinating.
