I is for INCHWORM

By Justin

Polychaete worms, the largest segmented worms, live along the shore. Many of these worms have tentacles on their head. The parapodia are used in crawling. They have many setae that help the worms grip the surface on which they are moving. They live among algae or burrow in mud or sand. Some live in tubes attached to the sea. A worm makes its tubes from sand or from material secreted by it's body. My Beanie Baby is Inch the Worm. He was born on September 3, 1995. He is multi-colored green, red, purple, orange and yellow. He is low to the ground.
