Meanwhile, on Earth:
As the ground thaws, earthworms return to the surface, their skin secreting microscopic mucus to glide through the dirt.

Great to hear "A life without worms" broadcast last week on BBC Radio4 with Alan Davies and Sandra Salazar D’eca from go-grow.org.uk/our-story/

What would happen if #earthworms disappeared? You can find out here www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

🪱Happy Darwin Day

He spent over 40 years studying earthworms

His final scientific book, The Formation of Vegetable Mould Through the Action of Worms, argued that earthworms are major geological agents, slowly transforming entire landscapes through their constant burrowing and digestion

As I’ve been working on #permaculture, I realized I never saw any earthworms. I looked it up, as i do before i introduce anything to the area, #maine doesn’t have native #earthworms! I had no idea but I’m not from Maine so I’m still learning. I found one #jumpingworm, thankfully only one so far 🤞

There are no native #earthworms in Alberta.

The worm below is not native to Alberta. However, as only one has been spotted in the wild, it is likely it would not become an #invasive species.

Brazilian soils: A 40-year review on earthworms, enchytraeids, collembolans and soil mites Introduction: Brazil, with 846 million hectares, struggles to manage its varied environmental landscape, as 60% is used for farming, affecting soil ecosystems that rely on organisms for nutrient cycli...

#Soils are vital #ecosystem drivers, yet they remain widely overlooked.

A new review of Brazil’s soil biodiversity reveals that #soil mites are the most studied group (>40%), followed by #earthworms, #springtails, and #enchytraeids.

#WorldSoilDay - healthy soil - healthy environment. To see a molehill - in my book - means earthworms. Soil engineers like #moles #earthworms aerate soil, improve drainage and provide nutrients from leaf litter for essential plant growth. Please LOVE them. 💚🖤🤎
