From the depths of the mysterious deep there has emerged two very strange
creatures which has left the experts at the Cape Lookout National Seashore
absolutely mystified in regards to their origin. These mysterious visitors which
have washed ashore are said to resemble six-inch black worms with bristles.
Park officials are now asking the public for help in possibly identifying these
creepy critters. "Our turtle patrol found them on the ocean side of the beach
recently, adjacent to a log covered in goose-neck barnacles," the Park posted
on their Facebook page, (No idea if they are connected to the log or if its
just a coincidence.) So far we're stumped as to what they might be."
However, Park staff have speculated that the creatures might be
a "form of sea cucumber" or possibly a sea slug.
Cape Lookout National Seashore is located in the southernmost part of
North Carolina's barrier islands, more commonly known as the Outer Banks.
Hat Tip to my friend and intrepid Tar Heel State weather watcher

Pretty scary looking, wouldn't you agree?
