Heavy rains brought out a creepy sight at Eisenhower State Park near Denison, Texas.

Large tangles of earthworms, called "herds," lined roads along the state park as they tried to escape the high waters.

The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department shared a video of the slimy discovery, in which they performed the obligatory – and highly scientific – "poke it with a stick" maneuver.

Enjoy (or actually, you probably won't).
