Scientists were perplexed when they only discovered females but further investigation revealed that the males remained in their microscopic larval stage, living inside the female worms.:wacko:

Yeah, I'm not very afraid. I think if I was being attacked by them, drowning might be my more immediate worry.

To put it in context, btw, bone is patially digested by the transit through stomach acid, and will eventually dissolve in acidic soil, so the secretion won't have to be hugely strong.

Now, find me a worm with laser ray guns, and I'll worry.
