1) Terrestrial flatworm with termite prey:
This was an interesting scene which I didn't manage to capture to its full effect. The terrestrial flatworm had somehow managed to capture 4 termites, had wrapped itself around them and was slowly digesting them. I've never seen flatworms capture such mobile or social insects.

2) Termites covered in digestive juices:
