Leech supplement!

thught id make this a touch educational - and inform you about what ive learnt about leeches so far,

there are two types, land leeches and aquatic leeches - the ones in kao sok are land leeches and they are basically like a mini slinky - they are 1-2 cm long and have a sucker at each end and teeth on only one end.

Basically they wait for the moist conditions, listen for vibrations of creatures, then wait in the grass or on leaves ready to pounce - once attatched they wander around trying to find a juicy spot to suck from - then they feed there untill there full of blood and drop off,

im still not sure how to get them off cos everyone says something different , but panicing and screaming seems like the best method to me

i know there harmless, and dont spread disease - or even cause pain - but just for the record - im pretrified of the little f*ckers!!! and i hope i never see another one again

rubbish in the jungle me, big wuss :-)
