++CLIENTS PLEASE NOTE: THIS VIDEO HAS BEEN LOOPED++ A rare hammerhead worm was captured slithering outside a home Ratchaburi, Thailand. The invasive tropical creatures, scientific name Bipalium, sparked alarm last month after colonising areas of France. In total five species of hammerhead flatworms were reported in urban areas of southern France, including two "giants" Bipalium kewense and Diversibipalium multilineatum. The hammerhead worms originate from Asia but have found their way around the world and are now also present in the UK.
