You know what's really cool? Sociable eels in small streams on a university campus in New Zealand.
@sundogplanets There used to be a place near Nelson on the South Island that would give you a little cup of raw chicken bits and a popsicle stick to feed them with. It was terrifying and cool at the same time. They would come up out of the water to get some, and could bite down on the stick and pull it out of your hand.
