In the dark swamps of a nocturnal forest, a group of gleaming axolotls is in heat, nuzzling and nibbling each other's limbs. Soon a much larger two-legged forest dweller encounters the lustful group and reaches down to gobble one of the small shimmering creatures. His plump friends begin to partake as well, and a feast starts. While dawn is slowly breaking, a cheerful game begins higher up in the branches.
