Wolf Eel

  

HELP US NAME THE NEW WOLF EELS AT THE DALLS AQUARIUM AT FAIR PARK AND WIN A FREE ZOO AND AQUARIUM FAMILY MEMBERSHIP!
They enjoy cold water climates in the Pacific along the shore of California north to Alaska and along the coast of Japan. When fully grown, wolf eels are not very attractive, becoming grayish/green in color and snaggle-toothed. They grow to six-feet long. These docile creatures have powerful jaws for eating sea urchins and crabs -- and can bite a broomstick in half. Come see the wolf eels while they are still cute.
