This awful creature was, according to my partner, found under or black walnut tree, attached to or emerging from the neck of a very-recently killed bunny that the dog had (killed within the last ~15m). Any idea what it is? More pics available.
It's not smooth like a slug/leech, but has a textured surface. It looks like a grub, but what would a grub be doing attached to a bunny? It has an obvious mouth and anus. She described the mouth part as "hexagonal", which she saw open while it was alive, coming off of or out of the Bunny's neck (it was in or by by a wound it didn't necessarily inflict).
I think it's probably just congealed evil and should be thrown into a fire, along with everything it touched except the puppy, and that's how it's going to get me.
My opinion is obviously tongue-in-cheek, but what is this really?
Ah fuck it's a botfly 🤢
Fair warning for those who are curious, botfly larvae typically grow in the skin. Do not look this up unless you have a strong stomach. Especially do not look this up if you have trypophobia. I will never get some of those images out of my head. Genuinely gives me a stronger visceral reaction than some of the worst gore I have seen. Fuck botflies, I am gonna go wash my hands
...he said, as he locked eyes with me, casually hitting the bong and slowly, calmly fucking a shark
I looked it up and it looks bad, but not as bad as you made it sound. For sure a trypophobia trigger, but far from the worst things I've seen (which is, admittedly, pretty gruesome).
It may have just been the specific images I saw as a kid and the specific issues I have with skin
