Yeah those buggers are terrifying.
Also, I believe they are one of the very few species on Earth that has not had to evolve in millions of years.

It is perfectly acceptable to fear and admire a being you could not possibly understand.

And of course, when you see something like that - you have to kill it, right?

It kinda saddens me that something like that is dead now, but life goes on.

Not gonna lie, I did think this was going to be a satirical post with a picture of Snooki or something.

WTF is that thing o.o
It looks like one of those weird species only found on the bottom of ocean rifts, meant to never meet life.

It's a lamprey

It's a parasite found on fish, sucks out their blood

I didn't even read the article, just looked at it said "It's a giant lamprey" and closed it.

Because I can...

That's correct (at least according to the article).

That'd basically what a lamprey is

LOL

I have no doubt they get onto the fields at schools and airports, I've seen them hopping around at my school ovals before. I see them eating the grass of the graves at the cemetary I live by on sunny afternoons.

Because I can...

It's weird to think that kangaroos and koalas are a thing, they seem like plush animals come to life. Or maybe I'm becoming disconnected from the world and need to get off the internet. Either way, I'd love to visit Australia sometime.

Don't visit in the summertime

Too fucking hot and there's a chance you'll either suffer through a flood, cyclone or fire hazard.

Come in the winter or spring.
