sharp-nosed eel Explanation: Maybe. Eels are also sometimes described as broadnosed or sharpnosed; the broadnosed eel is one that has excessively developed jaw muscles as a result of voracious feeding, and is almost always a female. http://www.fao.org/wairdocs/tan/x5915e/x5915e01.htm http://www.amazon.com/Sharp-Nosed-Eel-Broad-Nosed-12x18-Post... |
