INTERACTIVE ARTIFICIAL AQUATIC ANIMAL FEEDING DEVICE AND METHOD

摘要

An interactive aquatic animal feeding method and device includes an elongated lead secured to a body with non-living edible material. The body can have characteristics to aid in the attraction of a feeding response from the aquatic animal, such as movement, shape, scent, coloring, flovoring, and texture. Movement may be facilitated by use of a flexible, resilient and/or elastic elongated lead. The body can be manipulated and moved in an aquarium. One or more devices canb be packaged in a shell with a plurality of cavities to receive the bodies, and slits formed in walls surrounding the cavities to receive and bind the elongated leads. A series of channels adjacent to the walls or a single channel formed around the wall can be used to secure and store excess length of the elongated leads.
