This Moray Eel Has Fallen Head Over Fins For A Diver Who Comes To Visit Her

October 20, 2017

An Australian diver shares a unique bond with a spotted moray eel that you have to see to believe.

Valerie Taylor first met the eel in 1974 and says the eel was "very timid." But after a few years, something magical happened.

"She didn't just come out. She swam around me, she swam between my legs, she nuzzled my face, and I thought this is amazing," Valerie says in the video. "And after that, we have been great friends, and now when she sees me coming... and I might not see her for a year (once I didn't see her for three years!), this thing comes out across the sand, and comes over to me and hugs and loves... there is no doubt in my mind that eel really likes me."
