ウツボと、ウツボに似ているツチノコ、ウツボカズラ。
ウツボはウナギで、ツチノコは多分ヘビ。
全然異なる生き物なのにいろんな視点で共通点をもって集まっている。
The moray eel, the tsuchinoko (a snake-like legendary creature), and the pitcher plant ("utsubo-kazura" in Japanese)—they all share similarities in different ways, even though they are completely different beings.
The moray eel is a type of eel, the tsuchinoko is probably closer to a snake, and the pitcher plant is, of course, a plant.
It’s fascinating how things from totally different categories can seem connected depending on your perspective.
