    Isn't nature weird sometimes....

    Trawling through some top ten this and such and such most that lists I stumbled across one listing some of nature's weirdest looking creatures and spotted this little freak show...

    Slight resemblance to Predator if you ask me.

    Nature can be very surprising.. look at the list of Mick Hucknall's ex girlfriends, for example....

    Probably a worm eater, like most moles, I imagine... tentacles for extra worm-sensing duties, probably..?
