Fark (of course) linked up this Courier Post article detailing what could be the discovery of a lifetime:

Bill Ott thought he found a little black snake.

He had no idea the creature wriggling in his hands might be an undiscovered species.

Turns out it's a weird terrestrial leech, not quite a foot long. They're not sure if it's a new species or not. We were surprised by an 8-inch long preying mantis in Ellen's garden last weekend, so I'm just happy this thing is in New Jersey.
