Learn More About The Worm Drawing
Earthworms are invertebrates that live in the soil around the world. There are over 1,800 distinct species. Most are only a few inches in length, but one Australian species can reach a length of 3.3 meters, or about 11 feet!
Worms often feature in popular culture. How to Eat Fried Worms was a piece of juvenile literature made into a movie. A giant worm called an Alaskan bull worm made an appearance in the animated series Spongebob Squarepants.
Movies such as Star Wars, Dune, and Tremors pit their characters against or alongside giant worms.
Images of earthworms are often paired with apples or with birds, illustrating the maxim, “the early bird gets the worm.”
They may also be depicted as farmers because of the work they do in enriching the soil, or alongside fish and fishing rods since they are used as bait. Sometimes they are pictured with a book to illustrate the studious “bookworm,” meaning an avid reader.
