...there exists a rare, giant, albino earthworm in the scrub prairies of the Palouse. It grows to be 3 feet long, and smells like lilies.
I scarcely believed it myself—that's also Sasquatch country out there, you know—so I had to look it up. The Giant Palouse Earthworm (Driloleirus americanus) is real. They're so rare, though, that one hasn't been spotted in almost 20 years…until last year. A new specimen was found, and unfortunately, fixed in formaldehyde right away.
