slime eels
Slime eels are commonly used to refer a group of marine creatures, known as hagfish, that belong to the class Myxini. They are known for their ability to produce large amounts of slime or mucus when they are disturbed. Despite their name, the slime eels are not actually eels; they are jawless fish and are noted for their elongated, eel-like bodies, scaleless skin, and the fact they have remained evolutionarily unchanged for hundreds of millions of years. These creatures are typically found in cold waters at great depths. They are scavengers, feeding mainly on dead and dying creatures on the ocean floor.
