velÂ·vet. n. 1. A soft fabric having a smooth, dense pile and a plain underside. 2. a. Something suggesting the smooth surface of velvet.
The pink velvet worm belongs to an ancient group of animals described as a âmissing linkâ between arthropods (insects, spiders and crustaceans) and annelids (segmented worms). The pink velvet wormâs skin is water-repellent and feels velvety to the touch. A voracious predator, the pink velvet worm captures its prey by squirting a sticky white liquid onto it, entangling it. The pink velvet worm gives birth to live young, which develop in a uterus for several months before they are born.
