Deadly Rays - Part 2

The 'Tchu Tchu de rio' is a short tail freshwater sting ray. It also has venom like other sting rays. Little is known about it but the natives of Argentina say that it can grow up to 20 feet long.


Here you can see the size of the barb.

Rays are also part of the family of sharks, it's basically a flattened shark.
It is sand colored to camouflage in the sand.
But the special thing in this ray is that it has 2 spines while other sting rays only have one.
So double the spine, double the power and double the quantity of venom.


And here is a 14 foot long 'Tchu Tchu de rio'!!!!

Dangerous Eels - Part 3

The electric eel is an Amazon terminator. With its electrocuting scales, it can light a house up which is pretty amazing. This eel can electrocute a man or even a crocodile till death. It uses its skills to electrocute prey and eats them without electrocuting itself . It can grow until 6 or 7 foot long.


Here is what it looks like.

If you would touch one of these eels, you would probably die of electrocution!!!!

This eel has the power to grill meat and when it does that to your body, you will probably seem to have a fit  until you are dead. This eel doesn't have the normal thin head of an eel; when it electrifies a victim, its body lights up and, if the head had been thin, it would kill itself.

Legend says that Thor, the god of lightning, gave the power to the eel through a storm that hit it. and here is a 5 to 6 foot electric eel.

Dangerous Eels - Part 2

The Marble eel is the South Pacific terror. It is also known an the 'Tamtam' in the South Pacific islands. This specific eel is a little bit rare to catch. With its coloring, it in very confusing with sand because it has light yellow and white spots on the back of its head and back.

This is a 3 fool marble eel but they can grow up to 8 feet long. This eel has murdered about 100 people. It specially attacks the face of its victims, leaving a red mark which is a bite mark. But the natives had blamed an octopus, but an octopus in freshwater doesn't makes any sense as it is a salt water inhabitant. This eel feeds on other eels and mosquito fish.


And here are 7 foot large marble eels. When they become big, there colors evolve to brighter colors to attract females.

Dangerous Eels - Part 1

The long fin eel is the biggest eel of all times. It can grow up to 10 feet long. Carnivorous, it eats everything that can fit in its mouth. The long fin eel was and still is accused of killing and attacking people. It has been accused of about 300 or more crimes!!!!

Here is a 4 or 5 feel long long fin eel.

The long fin eel was discovered by Captain James Cook in New Zealand.The legend of the long fin was given by the natives of New Zealand. It was started by a giant sized monstruous eel which wanted to mate with a goddess .When it mated, the giant eel spawned 1.000 000 baby eels which spread to the whole world. The native people thought that it was a god and they did loads of sacrifices for the eels like killing themselves and putting the dead bodies in the river for the eels to eat.

The long fin eel has a very well developed sense of smell. They only used their sense of smell to catch prey because their eyes are very small and useless. When the prey is big, it takes the body and spins it round and round to take a chunk off the meat.


And here is a 5 to 7 foot long fin eel!!
