      With several records of apparently unprovoked attacks on people, the tasselled wobbegong has a reputation beyond other wobbegongs for aggressive behavior.

      Is such a fucking funny sentence to me.

        Normally when I think of wobbegongs I think about cute, maybe a little strange-looking but otherwise harmless creatures. But then I remember that the tasselled wobbegong exists.

          “The vicious… tongles of the tasselled wobbegong turn into… teeth, and they, chomp, on the wobbegong’s prey.”
