| | Earthworm - MSN Encarta |
 | | Earthworms are capable of burrowing with considerable speed, especially in loose soil; the bristles along the sides of the body are of great assistance in their movements. | | | Earthworms also form a source of food for many animals, and constitute the principal food of moles and shrews. | | | Although a difference in shading exists between the upper and under surfaces and between different parts of the body, earthworms in general are uniform in color, usually pale red, but varying from dull pink to brown. |
