Caecilians are a kind of amphibian, though without legs.

This video shows the happy family, with the young eating the skin off the Mother Caecilian.

I didn't know which Babble category to put this in. "Consumption" seemed somehow relevant.

All that's missing is the rock video, with the little Caecilian's chanting, "Yummy Yummy Yummy, I've got Mummy in my Tummy."

Does this qualify as elder abuse?

I'll move this to humanities and science.

The video has audio. You can actually hear the little creatures munching away.

Compared to websites like Ogreish, I would say this is downright wholesome entertainment.
