not to mention these things don't really have a mouth, and when they need to eat, they *rip open a hole in their bodies to let the prey in* and just as easily close it back up again after it's done

i want hydra's to reproduce them and make traps for Mosquito's

[@MegaJesseman]

Unless you live in water it wouldn't be the most reliable way to deal with mosquitos. The mosquito being eaten in this video, hence the title, is a larva. Mosquitos lay eggs in water. Hydras would be a reliable means of dealing with mosquito reproduction because they would eat the mosquito larva, but they aren't that great at attacking things that aren't in the water. You would be better off planting garlic around your house. Mosquitos and several other types of insects hate the smell of garlic. Also, garlic kills mosquitoes. If you don't want to put in the effort of growing your own garlic, you can also spray garlic water around your house every day.

Hydra - an aquatic creature is the only living creature that never die. It regenerates, replacing its cells with fresh ones.

[@c.d.l.r9679]

[@gdslowingunicorn1806]

I thought hydras were a mythical creature so I’m so interested

[@eunaekim9216]

Just an FYI, there was in fact a mythical creature called a hydra. If one of its heads was cut off, two would grow in its place. The actual animal hydra can regenerate any part that it loses!

[@GrumblingGrognard]

Worth noting while mosquitos can stand extremely high rates of water toxicity...hydra cannot. Support clean water legislation, not the corporations.

[@pranavpudke5318]

how does it digest ? does it have any digestive juices or enzymes

[@justinwhy6550]

pranav pudke Yes they have digestive juices in a gastro vascular cavity

[@sabakhan-qc9di]

There are glandular cells and flagellated musculo epithelial cells present in their endodermis layer. The glandular cells secrete proteolytic enzymes and the flagellated ones, along with the contraction of the body cavity, helps in the circulation of the food and thus helps in mechanical digestion.
