After massive flooding across Texas last month, the last thing anyone expected to see on the road were spaghetti piles.
Except those piles turned out to be alive. And made of worms.
Yes, once floodwaters receded, rangers at Eisenhower State Park saw numerous giant worm balls in almost a straight line down the middle of the road.
"We're still puzzled why they decided to line up in the middle of the road," Park Superintendent Ben Herman told ABC News. "Even our biologist doesn't know why they're spaced so well and in the line."
What’s even weirder is that the worms took off after two days, leaving their manure, and that no other state park in Texas reported giant balls of worms.
One Canadian earthworm farmer told CTV he thinks the worms balled up because they had been flooded from their homes and were looking for the highest point possible to dry their mucous membranes.
After saying he has seen worms ball up several times, Dale Overton summed it up well, telling CTV, “There’s really no telling what their thought process might be. I mean, they’re worms.”
