These guys always made me feel uncomfortable. I would collect and eat them, and the remains would run away afterward.
Could you do me a favor? Since you know what you're looking for, will you see if you can find any videos of this? I looked, but either my keywords are bad, or there just aren't any. I'm assuming it's bad keywords. That's absolutely wild.
I tried. This isn't a very good video, but you can kinda see it's still trying to crawl away after it's been eaten at several points. I might have had 20 or so in a pile fresh out of the water and they were much more active. I hope this helps.
I like the fat ones. The long ones don't taste good.
I am deeply, deeply disturbed by this. Thank you for sharing!
