Caecilians are a limbless amphibian with the ability to live on both land and in water. Even though they look like a harmless earthworm these creatures have a mouth full of razor sharp teeth. Young caecilians feed on their mother after they hatch, but this behavior doesn't harm the mother. Mother caecilians build up a thick hide before their babies hatch for this very purpose. They live off a diet of insects and small animals. Caecilians live in South and Central America as well as Africa and parts of Asia.
