The Electric Eel is a fish, and
a deadly one at that. It is capable of producing
electric shocks up to 650 V. They use this offense
for both protection and hunting.
The Electric Eel is actually
a knifefish, not an eel. They are dark grey / green in colour,
with a lighter bottom. They are considered one of the highest
predators in their natural region. Their bodies are very cylindrical.
Electric Eels breathe air, and can hold their breath for about
10 minutes.
