SOURCE: "The Dual World" by Arthur K. Barnes  (Thrilling Wonder Stories, June 1938)

DESCRIPTION: "Almost hourly the hunting parties returned with magnificent specimens — everything from the incredible Atlas crab to the sea squirrel, the little rodent with feet like sea-sleds, which ran about agilely over the surface of the ocean, and whose body contained so much oil that the stuff squeezed out of its eyes and splashed from its opened mouth." ("The Dual World" by Arthur K. Barnes)

NOTES: One of the many strange creatures on Barnes' Venus.

HISTORY: Just mentioned in passing, but the idea of a creature who can squirt oil out its eyes is -- well -- gross.
