It turns out that earthworms, previously thought to tunnel through earth by eating, digesting, and excreting/extruding it, actually find a little crack in front of them in the dirt, jam their faces into the crack, then turn their mouths inside out to widen the crack far enough to wriggle in a little further, and repeat. Seriously. Add this to my reasons for being glad I have hands.
Dextrously,
