When an eel has a maw
with a pharyngeal jaw,
that’s a moray.

When the jaws open wide
and there’s more jaws inside,
that’s a moray.

When it skulks in a reef
and has two sets of teeth,
that’s a moray.

When an eel bites your thigh
and you bleed out and die
that’s a moray.

Nice. The inspiration for the creature in Alien?

When I see footage of Moray eels, they seem like puppies of the sea. There’s a few stories of divers befriending a Moray.
