* Several animals in real life are known to tie themselves into knots. Eels and hagfish tie themselves into knots as a defensive measure against predators and to help them tear food apart. Eels have also been observed tying themselves into knots to give themselves leverage to pull prey out of hiding places. Hagfish also tie themselves into knots in order to remove excess slime from their bodies. Snakes normally do not tie themselves into knots and usually only do so if something is wrong with their nervous system, which may be caused by a viral infection. Snakes also tie themselves into knots during experiments where they are subjected to microgravity by a rapidly descending airplane, but why they do this is unknown.
