Pic Submission.

That is a dead Rotifer who's leg and foot and toes are still moving for over 2 hours because of nerves.

The Rotifer's toes even I think felt the Paramecium rub up against them and might be giving the Paramecium a massage.

Here is the video all put together from the clips I took- you will see this in action!

I guess the caption could read-

A dying Rotifer's foot continued to move for several hours.
From it's seemingly knowing movements Paramecium received five massages.

OR-

A Paramecium receives a massage or perhaps a "Communication" as well from a dying Rotifer.

(We do not even really know the communications etc...)

A video was shot which captures all this explicitly.

A Nikon S Cb microscope with a Nikon Plan 10X objective lens

and an AmScope MD500 USB camera were used to capture the photo.

I guess I'll email the editor like another post stated. I thought all you had to do was post'em here. ???
