Once thought to be as extinct as an honest Politician, this earliest ancestor of most eels has been found alive and kicking in a very remote part of Australia.
Living at the same time as the Dinosaurs and around a bit them as well, this bloke may not have given you a nasty bite, but according to reports would give you one very nasty suck though.

@Fernapple Flattery and adulation will get you nowhere I'm sorry to say, but, money, on the other hand may smooth the way...LOL.

@Triphid That must be why I always get such a rough ride, never have had much of that.
