Eunice dharastii - A Bobbitt Worm named after a Marnie Conservation Pioneer Hidden beneath the sand lies one of the oceans most astonishing ambush predators. This is *Eunice dharastii* — a species of Bobbit worm named in honour of marine conservation pioneer Dr Dave Harasti. Though rarely seen in full, the creatures presence is unmistakable: iridescent plates, feathered antennae sensing the current, and a lightning-fast strike that has earned these worms a legendary reputation among divers and scientists. In this short film, youll glimpse the world of a hunter that relies on patience, precision and the cover of darkness. It waits in silence, anchored beneath the seabed, rising only when the moment is right. The contrast between its delicate colours and formidable behaviour makes this worm one of the oceans most fascinating contradictions. Slow your pace, watch closely and discover the secretive life of a creature whose story now carries the name of someone who has devoted his own to understanding and protecting the sea. www: https://solitude.world/issue-2-explorer-ocean-escapes/
