These Worms Turn Snails Into Disco Zombies
No, this snail isn't ready to rave. It couldn't be any more from the truth. It has been turned into a zombie by a mind-controlling parasite. And there's no other way to put this. It's pulsating inside the tentacles of the unfortunate snail. This is the green-banded broodsac.

Nature can be disturbing at times but the insect world is an exponential kind of horror
if i was a snail i wouldnt let that happen to me personally
Hey, it’s great to be human! Not once today have I worried about worms zombifying my eyestalks. You gotta be grateful for the little things…
See here's my thought: why the hell hasn't this been adapted into any kind of post-apocalypse zombie concept yet. Would be gnarly as hell
Every time I hear about insects I'm more and more happy to be at the top of the food chain. It truly is a privilege to be a human.
That is both horrifying and absolutely disgusting! Also, those poor snails! They must be in so much pain when this happens 😫 😓
Imagine how terrifying a human equivalent of this would be.
"Nature is so beautiful!" -people sitting safely in their homes
Mother Nature can be more horrifying than any movie 😬
I cannot describe how uncomfortable that made me feel.
Narrator: "These snails often tend to go to the open areas more, which is not usual behaviour"
Scientists: "The snail must be being mind controlled because the snail is going out into the dangerous open"
"the snail will regenerate its body and live a normal life"
Imagine you’re a snail, worms take over your brain and head, a bird swoops down and rips your face off, and then you just grow a new one and go about your business like nothing happened.
Mom: go outside and touch grass
I've never hated something so much in my entire life.
This disturbs me on a level that is so penetrating and incomprehensible, it horrified me to my very core.
I remember seeing this kind of snail as a child in a village. It was shocking. I've told an adult: "look what is happening!" but no one actually paid attention. Then figured out what it was a few years later, reading about snail parasites.
Disco isn’t dead.
This is genuinely horrific.
