Sometimes you look around, and you see something that looks exactly like a penis. You take a picture of it, and you send it to your friends to make fun of and laugh about it.
There are also some animals that look exactly like the male genitalia, which makes you question mother nature or God if you’re religious, since why on Earth someone or something would create something that looks like…a dick?
It also must have surprised people who saw these animals for the first time. “What’s that? Has someone lost his dick? Anyone?” Well, it’s only an animal.
So, here are 7 animals that will make you think your nudes have been leaked.
Atretochoana eiselti is originally a species of caecilian, which is a group of limbless, serpentine amphibians. This animal is also called a “penis snake” since its look resembles the male genitalia. It was first discovered in the Brazilian rainforest by Sir Graham Hales and then rediscovered in 2012 by engineers building a dam in Amazon. Seems like this dick snake likes South America.
You’d remember the news from Drakes Beach when it was invaded by millions of penises, or more precisely, penis fish. Urechis unicinctus, fat innkeeper worm, or penis fish, is a species of marine spoonworm. They can be found on Korean and Japanese coasts, and the closely related species, Urechis caupo, can be found in shallow waters on the West coast of North America. How sad is it that this fish took the name of the male genital, but I mean, how couldn’t it?
Priapulida, a.k.a. penis worm, is a phylum of marine worms. This worm takes its name from the Greek Fertility God Priapus since it looks like… a penis. Wonder if this little creature is aware of the fact that it looks like a penis and is named after it. Not cool.
This penis-shaped animal, a species of saltwater clam in the Hiatellidae family, is edible. Its habitat is the coastal parts of western Canada and the northwest United States. Also, it’s one of the longest-living animals. Its usual lifespan is around 140 years; the oldest recorded was 168. And it doesn’t become dysfunctional with age.
This fish isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the word “fish” because of its phallic shape. It’s a species of ray-finned fish in the Zoarcidae family, and it’s also known as pink vent fish, but it’s more like pink penis fish. Also, it can be found at bathypelagic depths in the East Pacific. Imagine you go fishing to relax and catch this fish that looks like a penis. What would you do?
Yeah, it’s called “vagina,” but it doesn’t look like a vagina at all. It’s a species of eel goby, and its length is around 20 to 22 cm or 7.9 to 8.7 in; I mean, wow, it’s a big boy indeed, just kidding. This big boy usually lives in burrows in the silty and muddy bottoms of marine and brackish habitats.
Acorn worms are a class of hemichordate class of invertebrates. The length of these worms mostly ranges from 9 to 45 centimeters or 3.5 to 17.7 in, but some can reach 1.5 meters or more, boy oh boy! A penis-shaped worm in a human size, isn’t it kind of scary? But don’t worry, humans rarely see them because of their habitat, a U-shaped burrow on the sea bed.
