Red worms or manure worms can grow to about 5-7 centimetres (3 inches) long and will eat their own weight in garbage every 24 hours. When worms are used in composting it is called vermicomposting.
Piltdown bird
Piltdown bird Scientists have discovered that a fossil, once
thought to be the missing link in the chain connecting dinosaurs to
birds, is linked by glue not evolution. The fossil, which was
purchased from an unknown U.S. dealer, is of a bird's body with a
dinosaur's tail. Extensive investigation has now shown that the
tail piece was glued on, probably to attract a higher price on the
market. Despite this embarrassment palaeontologists think the
fossil may still be of value, once the tail part is disregarded, as
it is an ancestor of modern birds. 29 JANUARY 2000, P. 12
