These little shiny fellows deserve a visit! Be kind to them, don’t shout and don’t point flashing lights on them. 
If you don’t manage to experience glow worms at the Waitomo Caves (North Island) click here for more info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glowworm it is very interesting knowing what they are and what they actually do with their bodies/food :)
