His mom described the worm as 'the stuff of nightmares.'
CHRISTCHURCH, New Zealand - A 9-year-old boy had one of the best days of his life when he discovered a giant earthworm in his backyard.
While his mom considered the earthworm “the stuff of nightmares,” Barnaby was delighted. The boy said he likes learning about “weird animals” and described the worm as feeling cold and squishy. “I tried to convince my dad to keep it in a plastic bag, but he wasn’t really in on that idea. I think it’s because adults don’t really enjoy giant worms in their houses, so if I was an adult, I would agree,” Barnaby said.
