WAIT, i take it back, he is holding it suspended NEAR his bare chest, duh

What are those, eggs? I just got the shivers when I reached that image GAH!

Spider doesn't bother me as much as the toad for some reason.

o u motherfuckers you are ruining my night but i can't stop looking.

I am slightly trypophobic which is prob why the toad grosses me out so much. GAH. Ewww. I looked at it again and now I feel a little sick.

the toad could be #1

the loa loa worm, which feeds on your eyeballs, among other parts of the human body. click at your own risk.

oh christ you weren't kidding

oh christ

The geoduck was the macot of my alma mater! I'm an Evergreener, Class of 1978.

I think parasites that prey on humans sorta belong in their own category. ordinary bedbugs and ticks scare me way more than any fancy egg-backed toads or tongue-eating crabs. at a distance, even the most monstrous animals can seem almost cute, but the moment a living thing burrows into my body, it shuts off the part of my brain that goes "awwwwwwwwww."

sometimes it's about quantity

That looks like pubes.

Which, frankly, is the best argument for Brazilian waxing I have ever seen.

OK so somehow while looking for more ideas for this thread I just wound up looking at tons of pics of Peruvian guinea pig meals. They serve the suckers up whole legs and tails and all! O_O

have had this, in peru! there's not a lot of meat. you can eat the toenails like unpopped corn kernels.

hi how are you

you can eat the toenails like unpopped corn kernels

Not really making them sound any more appetizing buddy.

:) it was no worse than eating say, a roast chicken

http://www.documentingreality.com/forum/attachments/f181/44221d1239579277-tongue-eating-isopod-tongue-replacement-isopod-1.jpg

I think I am not so much freaked out by the isopod as: why the hell does this fish have human teeth???

posted this the other day in a spider thread, but i'm just gonna go ahead and post it again

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWASwBWyUXI

prying it off with a stick like that had to have been as satisfying, if not more satisfying, than lighting the whole thing on fire

hahahaha I was going to post the fish with human teeth but I thought that was only something I was freaked out by

it's just not right

http://wakkanew.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/teeth-fish2.jpg

oops x-post

coelancanths are awesome tho! They are so ancient and huge and also if you catch them in Animal Crossing they are worth tons of bells <3

I am surprised at the revulsion for the coconut crab - it seems to be pretty firmly planted on the good side of the arthropod divide

I have eaten more guinea pigs than I can remember now after seven months in Peru. Better than rabbit, not as good as chicken. lots of dark meat and little bones.

coconut crabs: i like them i just shudder to think about how if given the opportunity they would surely open up a baby's skull and casually help themselves to the brains

I was going to post this eye-leech, but it sounds like the loa loa worm has it beat.

tbf it wouldn't actually help itself to the brains after opening up the baby's skull, it would call its buddy first

http://www.hemmy.net/images/animals/hugecrab01.jpg

then they would divvy up and share.

17. camels. camels are hella nasty imo and whats more they are fukken ruminants

Also, deep sea monsters rule this thread:

Angler fish:
<img src=http://scribalterror.blogs.com/scribal_terror/images/2007/06/17/angler_fish.jpg>;

Viperfish

Gulper Eel

Dragon fish

Vampire Squid

xpost lololol

What is the fish that looks a lot like the viperfish but has giant, almost opaque eyeballs that are a solid milky white? And kind of a more elongated head? I had a picture book as a kid with a giant full page photo of two of their faces and it was the "scare yourself by turning to it" page for sure.

deep sea angler?

This should totally result in a poll.

Mating leopard slug

Actually kind of beautiful, but lots of people hate slugs.
