Antarctic ice melt reveals exotic creatures

Very cool link.

Sea cucumbers? I use to eat them at Chinese wedding banquets until I held a live one in Hawaii. I since stopped, but not for humanitarian reasons, but more like "uh, I'm eating that?"

Sometimes I think Joe is right, asians will eat anything cover in sauce over rice, including seaslugs.

The only pickled sea cucumbers I've ever seen are the ones in fermaldahide (spelling). Not very appetizing to say the least.

In Skip William's 2e "Sea Devils" supplement (yes, I do own a few 2e bits), it mentioned the consumption of certain sea cucumbers, in a priestess ceremony. I used something similar with my Envenomed PrC.

Greenhags, in my games, have been known to crave and consume certain venomous sea creatures after mating with scrag, before giving birth to shoal hags.

Ah, sea cucumbers, my old friends. Gotta love a critter that uses self-disembowelment as a defense mechanism.

Ah the sea cucumber (with its strong sense of honor) is natures seppuku enthusiast.

Sea cucumbers can't hold a candle to hagfish

Unless one sees the slime of the hagfish in action, they don't seem that bad in still pictures.

Some of those sea cucumbers though...
