I ’ve see photos of this strange tool but never had the hazard to take on one in someone .
That is a Florida worm lizard , know more properly asRhineura floridana . It await like a pinkish worm ophidian , though , not a worm lizard .
It ’s a good picayune predatory animal and rarely seen . I ’m aroused to constantly be come across new species in the intellectual nourishment forest . Dropping lots of jolty constituent topic and stick mass around … putting up bird house … not mow … planting a panoptic diversity of plant and trees … it makes a difference .
The neighbour might think you ’re nuts but Nature is quite happy to move in and think of you with an ever - changing array of strange and beautiful creatures .

My boy was tolerant enough to let his unseasoned siblings hold his newfound pink friend .
And then , after all the children had envision the mysteriously worm - like reptile , we set it free in ourMiami Garden , where it rapidly buried itself in the mulch .
My natural scientist ’s mettle was warmed to see my children fascinated by a bizarre puppet without shrieking or yelling “ kill it ! ”
