Don't Ya Crawl Too Slow, Move Along Lil' Suckahs . . . DULUTH, Minnesota (AP) -- Phil DeVore thinks of himself as a rancher. But he doesn't ride the range tending his herd, he just drops meat scraps into the pond.

DeVore raises leeches on his farm south of Superior, Wisconsin. He says the little suckers are like black gold. The leeches are prized by fisherman as bait. DeVore tells the Duluth, Minnesota, News Tribune he's working 20 hours a day this time of year to keep up with demand.

DeVore's jumbo leeches sell for about 16 dollars a pound -- more expensive than steak. He says even if he wanted to eat leeches, he couldn't afford it.

Mmmmmmm, who's got the ketchup?? ;-)
