I have no legs to run, no wings to fly, no claws to attack and no teeth to devour. Yet I'm a formidable predator with my hammer-shaped head.
I love your cute little earthworms, harmless and so useful to your crops.
I stick to their bodies and paralyze them with a nerve agent a thousand times more powerful than cyanide. I don't give them a chance.
I leave little pieces of my body everywhere in my path that immediately come to life as exactly identical clones*
Personne ne sait exactement comment je suis arrivé mais prenez garde, je m’installe en silence et inexorablement, surtout dans le Sud Ouest de la France.
