How many leeches are this guy's breeches?

22 0 ReplyI've only ever gotten one leech from wading; the times I've had the most leeches (about half a dozen usually) were just from walking on forest trails on misty/foggy/light rain days, and tall grass trails right beside the forest edge. In a steady drizzle if you look closely you see them posted up on trails stretching their little proboscides up and flop around like a slow version of those inflatable airdancers used to advertise car dealerships and those seasonal tax prep or title loan businesses that pop up in old run-down filling station buildings.
That's how I learned to tuck my hiking pants into my socks, and also to never wear shorts.
16 0 ReplyOnce I was in some rock pool, wearing some old converse with holes in them because of the rocks.
I must have stepped in a nest or something, because when I took the shoes off I had like 50 tiny (like rice-sized) leeches on one of my feet.
Thankfully they came off easily.

Thank you for this vivid description. Yet another reason for me to tuck my pants into my socks.

Yes.
15 0 ReplyIt reminds me of that nudist post with the tick on a laptop in the frame underneath, except it needs to be a leech.
Edit: @wise_pancake@lemmy.ca, @threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works Unfortunately, I can't post it because it's arguably NSFW.

44 0 ReplyHe's probably got an amoeba living in him somewhere important. But hey, he's old, he don't give a fuck.

This river can kill you 1,000 ways.
l can handle it. The only thing I'm afraid of is the candiru acu.
It's a tiny little catfish. It swims up into your urethra, spreads its little spines, and refuses to budge.
You have to cut it out.
That's it I'm going back to L.A.!
38 0 Replyit makes you feel better, the fish has only been documented doing this once in 1997, and it could have been a hoax
Originally I thought the fish only went up there if you peed in the water, but that too seems questionable...
But it does seem to like swimming up women's hooha's. Just don't be a woman and you'll be fine!
20 0 ReplyJust don't be a woman and you'll be fine!
Handy tip in general, that! 😛

the candiru acu is actually the common name for cetopsis candiru
the fish that swims up where it shouldn't is the vandellia cirrhosa
17 0 ReplyYeah, I’d be more worried about the brain eating amoebas in the warm stagnant water.
Maybe it’s safe if you keep your head out of the water and your fingers out of your nose. Dunno.

I'm not sure he's doing much of the tours anymore, the last time I saw him he was using a walker to get around. I love his work and his transition to black and white is beautiful.

Sorry, couldn't resist. Swamps can be great indeed!

12 0 Replywetlands are some of the best place to be if you don't mind the mud and the water. You get to see snakes, frogs, all that thrives in the water, insects, plants that never run out of water with these turgid leaves and flowers.

9 0 ReplyYeah, swamps are great. I spent a week in a burning, alligator-infested swamp, and it beats the hell out of being around other people.
