Sandworms can detect
any regular vibrations which puts nearly
everyone in the desert in a constant state of peril. There are plenty of
animals on Earth that have similar senses. Horn desert vipers rest their jaws on the ground that allows them to locate prey by sensing vibrations. Golden moles don't have eyes but they dip their heads into the sand to sense vibrations
from termite mounds. Lots of species tap their feet in patterns called
“foot drumming” to communicate with each other. Some s
piders can also listen
to the vibrations in their webs to sense if they're damaged or if any prey
have been trapped. Assassin Bugs even
pluck the webs of spiders to emulate trapped creatures then ambush the spider
when it investigates! That's similar to the
“thumpers” used to attract Sandworms in Dune.

The reason snakes lost their jaw on the ground is because they have an inner ear similar to ours, except that it is connected directly to the jaw bone
Guess what? We can also sense vibration of air molecules. It's called hearing.
Nature Science is awesome!
Whoa, this channel finally came back
Scorpions have flexible places in their leg segments that are loaded with sensory nerves that let them feel ground vibrations from the movements of potential prey near them.
Baluga whales have a giant soft fat deposit on their forehead to sense vibrations in the water too
Don't birds tap the ground to simulate rainfall, so earthworms will come to the surface?
Assassin bugs wild lol
This is an interesting concept for a channel actually
Assassin bugs just ringing the doorbell, "Candygram." MONCH!
Cool af
Send this to neil degrasse tyson
He forgot to mention Graboids
ALASKAN BULLWORMMM
Nature is terrifying
Elephants can also sense vibrations from very far away
But can they master Metal bending?
Off topic, but you look like Diet Ron Pearlman
If you walk without rhythm, then you won't attract the worm
You seem nice. Cheers to the algorithm, I liked as well but I don't sub on a first date
