Why Shouldn't You Touch This Creature? ❌😨 Electric eel ⚡ #eel #animals #shorts

Have you ever wondered what it's like to meet nature's real-life zapper? Meet the electric eel, the most electrifying creature out there! These eels can generate up to 860 volts, enough to knock out a crocodile. But guess what? Despite their name, electric eels aren't true eels. They're more like catfish. Their bodies are packed with special cells called electrocytes, making up 80 percent of their body. These tiny batteries let them create powerful electric shocks. They use this shocking power for hunting and self-defense, sending out electric pulses to stun their prey or scare off threats. In the dark, murky waters of the Amazon, where visibility is poor, these eels use low-frequency electrical signals to sense their surroundings and chat with other eels.
