This paramecium is feeding, making new food vacuoles, expelling waste and showing us how he does all that. It's an amazing lucky find and I was lucky to be ready with the camera.

Watch as his cell mouth, anal pore and gullet work and food vacuoles are formed and distributed about the body.

The video. (external link)

Thanks John and Bas. From the reaction I am getting in a microscope forum, this is a rare event to capture. Maybe the first time shown like this. I know for sure it's the very first time I have seen it. :)

Thanks Brian. I'm beginning to believe it. This video has brought a lot of comments from a lot of people. Certainly I have never seen a paramecium in this way before. :)
