His gigantic Moray eel has quickly dominated the fierce battle with the sea eel.
Moray eel has a larger body size than other eel species. There are individuals with body lengths of more than 3m, weighing up to 25kg.
Some Moray eel species have very good camouflage ability, the thick layer of slippery skin can change the body color to help them harmonize with the surrounding environment.
This eel species often lurks in coral reefs. Flexible, flexible backbone allows them to swim in the S shape and crept into the slot of the smallest coral reefs or reefs. Possessing sharp teeth with many bacteria and strong jaw muscles, Moray eel is known as the lord of coral reefs, ocean "killer".
They can wait patiently for hours until a real new opportunity comes suddenly to attack, making it hard for the prey to escape. If it bites and luckily escapes, it is difficult for the victim to survive because the bite can become infected, gradually leading to necrosis.
Some Moray eel species have their second teeth, sharp and healthy as outside, making them easier to bite and tear off prey.
Some Moray eel species often eat a lot of fish and gradually become poisoned, the poison can kill adults. If accidentally processing and eating those eels, people are very susceptible to poisoning, which can be life-threatening.
In the video, Moray eels do not squeeze their prey to death but just curl up to hold their prey and then use their strong, sharp teeth to bite the prey and swallow it.
