A belated happy Hagfish Day from Bizarre Beasts!

A belated happy Hagfish Day, which was yesterday, the third Wednesday of October. I have just the video to celebrate the occasion, This Slimy Fish Ties Itself in Knots from Bizarre Beasts.

Hagfish are slimy sea noodles that wear their skin like a pair of loose pajamas... and that isn't the weirdest thing about them.

Right now, I'm showing my students the Smithsonian Channel video I embedded four years ago. I might show them this video instead. I think it's more informative and swaps out the sensationalism and horror for humor. Here's to the humor helping my students learn.
