  • You tested us with this post. And we failed. They're pretty cute for dragon larvae, though.
  • I love these little beasties. I didn't know there were surface-dwelling olms WITH EYES, though. Also, 50 year lifespan!? There should be a story in which the hero/ine, in order to learn the crucial piece of information to complete his/her quest, must descend into the depths of the earth to find the underground rivers and consult the eyeless wisdom of the olms.
