Despite Appearances, this creature, the Wolf Eel, is one of the natural worlds true wonders - they are remarkably friendly.
Wolf eels having never seen a human diver before will not fear it, not attack it, but investigate and most likely come to the conclusion that this human can help scratch its back.
They are the worlds friendliest animals!
(Someone asked ‘but what about dogs?’ and, well, have you tried petting a wild dog…?)
