A bunch of EELS spilled out onto the tarmac at the Vancouver Airport on Sunday while the box they were in was being unloaded from a plane. Officials said the live eels were “collected and repackaged safely.”

Fun fact: It technically wasn’t a “snakes on a plane” moment. Eels are fish, not reptiles.
