I suppose there are things to be afraid of in the Adirondack wilderness. Once a generation there’s a murderer on the loose. I hear people tell of their fear
People are adopting buffalo leeches and keeping them as pets
Owners are also offering themselves as food for the parasitic creatures
Leeches can drink ten times their weight in blood in a single feeding
Owners say the leeches have their own personalities, like dogs or cats
They also share videos of the squishy sausages gorging on their blood
Breeders recommend feeding them every three or four months
