What is with Blizzard and eels?

I'm questing in Vashj'ir and so far, I have encountered three quests that involve the indiscriminate extermination of eels.

My initial guess is that the quest designers for Cataclysm had some sort of grudge against eels. I propose that we try to discover what eels did to this quest designer to make him hate eels so much.

Perhaps a live eel bit him on somewhere sensitive when he was fishing? Or an eel gave him tapeworms from not cooking it well?

Discuss, would you kindly.

I love eels, they're so cute :3 Blizz needs to rethink their stance on eels and see them for the cute snake fish they are! Theres also a quest in Uldum about killing vultures because it'll make the world a better place. I beg to differ, vultures eat all the dead things we kill allowing the cycle of life to continue.

They are lying.
