Paul: Streuth!

Say hi to Digaster longmani , an enormous earthworm reported on by 7 News Queensland in Australia. Adds Fox News:

Robert Raven, Head of Terrestrial Biodiversity at the Queensland Museum, told the news site the earthworm in Mace's photo could measure up to three feet long once it relaxes and stretches out.

"In the 1970s, I was walking through Lamington National Park and could hear them beneath me as they gurgled through some water," Raven recalled. "Seeing them is a sign we are getting good rain."
