Too close for comfort
There’s nothing about marine life that’s even remotely cute. Sure, seals are pretty adorable, but if you get on its wrong side, we guarantee that you’re going to have a bad time. This person didn’t come across a cuddly, territorial seal, though. They were face-to-face with a ferocious moray eel.
Moray eels are known for striking when they feel threatened. The good news is that the OP wasn’t pushing their luck with this underwater creature, but its curiosity was piqued. It jabbed at the OP’s scuba gear a few times before leaving them alone. Imagine what it must feel like being poked by a giant moray eel in its home.
