Worm Towers Are Real?!

Scientists just caught wild nematode worms stacking themselves into living towers—yes, actual towers of wriggling worms! These worm piles move as one, can sense touch, and even hitch rides on passing bugs. Turns out, they’re not just a gross heap; they’re a superorganism solving problems together. Only one worm species does this, and they can even bridge gaps as a team. Nature is way weirder (and cooler) than we thought! #ScienceNews #NatureIsWeird #WormTowers #Science
