Hagfishes (Myxinidae) are a family of jawless marine pre-vertebrates. Those video images taken in New Zealand revealed that hagfishes are able to choke their would-be predators with gill-clogging slime.It also shows that hagfishes are actively preying on other fish in New Zealand waters.
The video is part of a scientific paper describing this newly discovered behaviour which can be downloaded online at http://www.nature.com/srep/2011/11102...
