Tropical rainforest, polar ocean, the digestive tract of an insect or a mammalâtheyâre all worm habitats. Worms also observe an array of different feeding strategies. Parasites, predators, grazers, detritivores, filter-feedersâ there are worms enjoying every menu in nature.f the thirty-odd phyla in the animal kingdom, at least a third are generally referred to as worms.
