Looking for a Halloween movie? How about “Attack of the Bone-Eating Osedax Zombie Worms!” You’re whale-come!

Got a bone to pick? Let Osedax worms know! These worms can transform a whale skeleton into a homemade broth, drilling into the ex-whale with acid and licking their plates clean until there are no more leftovers to be found for to-marrow’s lunch.
