Giant predatory worms have invaded France

Are those things dangerous to humans, like parasitic? Or are they just "predatory" in the sense that they eat insects and dangerous in that they can have a negative environmental impact?

I read in another article that these "hammerhead" worms hunt and eat common earthworms which in turn throws off the balance.

This thing looks like some kind of creature from the Alien Prometheus

movie. The one that got inside one of the  astronau'ts space suit .

I was picturing Dune or Tremors.

And then the thing was 40 lousy cm long. 

Pfffft.

I'm sure the French will come up with a recipe for them.  "Ver plat à l'ail, monsieur?"

For those interested, 40 CM = 15.7480314961 inches. So what has changed in France?

Hmmm...They might make good fish bait as long as they don't bite when you put them on a hook.

If frogs will eat these, the French should put a moratorium on eating Kermit for a while and release the frogs!  There has to be something that will eat the flat worms. Larger birds maybe?

There is alot of animals who have invaded where they are not meant to, such as Cane Toads, Red Foxes, or Wild Boar.

Wow, almost my whole comment is gone!  What I don't get is why living in a developed country should have an affect on worms invading gardens?
