Would you like for mermaids to be added as dlc marine life?

Wasn't sold when I read the title, but the idea that they give you some special bonus kind of sold me - making them harder to catch (because of a supposed human-like intelligence added onto their natural water ability) would be a good trade off to a bonus of some sort (speed, maybe intelligence or something like that?)

To add to that idea, you could make them (or some of them maybe?) a "not-so-average mermaid" if you will. Pulling inspiration from the "Pirates of the Caribbean - On Stranger Tides" movie, why not make some or all of them the "Evil" mermaid, the fang-toothed sirens of the deep?
Spoiler!


Make some of them the innocent type, where you get a moderate bonus for catching/eating them, or, make some of them trickster types. You spot a lone mermaid and attempt to chase it down, only to be lured into a mermaid-ambush. 5-10 of these sharp-toothed seductresses appear from out of nowhere, and now it's a battle to the death. Survive, and the bonus you'd otherwise get from single-kill is now an epic bonus for surviving an ambush.

Might be a little far-fetched, just throwing it out there.
