But so far Darwin didn't find anything extra special about worms. Until, one day he realized that worms do have a superpower. They POOP Without their life-sustaining, nutrient-rich poop, there would be no plants and no animals on earth. Darwin's 40 years studying worms is still essential to our understanding of worms today, and ever since, scientists have taken him VERY seriously, and never again laughed at his love of worms.
