picrel: banana slugs

Scientists need to learn some humility and stop playing God. It's all very well cross-breeding bananas with slugs and laughing at the result, but they'll be laughing on the other side of their faces when these bananaslug abominations take over the world and enslave everyone.
Humans desu senpai

I call bullshit. They don't make bridles this tiny.

I'd eat them fried or something, honestly

I would eat every animal in this thread fried honestly. I'm so hungry.

Has science gone too far?!

They're mildly toxic. It probably wouldn't kill you, but you wouldn't want to eat one.

This is Xmen tier shit

Leucochloridium paradoxum.
A trematode of birds that forms sporocyst broodsacks in the ocular tenticles of snails to resemble catarpillars (they even pulse). This in turn attracts birds which consume these pseudo-catarpillars and become infected with the fluke, which can then mature to adulthood and produce eggs. The eggs are passed in the birds faeces which are then eaten by the snail and the cycle continues.
It's an ingenious and manipulative motherfucker, not to mention trippy as shit.

Interesting about those is that infected snails live longer than a healty snails lifespan, if not eaten of course. Fucking zombie parasite snails
