It's a rubber jaw toy for dogs/birds, the darn thing is practically indestructable.

yay giant pacific octo! Ive fed the one at the vancouver aquarium. She is very playful as she tries to eat your hand. and she doesn't give up either... she can go at it for hours. She likes it when you rub her between the eyes.

If i had a big enough tank...
