This moray eel is the largest species of moray eel that can be found.
Contrary to many people believe, moray eels are not bad or electric :). However, their teeth are pointing inwards, making the loophole more difficult!
Moray eels often hide in the crevices between the corals but sometimes go out to change their shelter.
Mammals have a horizontal tail.
Fishes have a vertical fin.
We can hear the bull shark is very dangerous because of attacks near La Réunion island.
However, tens of them are living at 600 feet from the famous beach of Playa Del Carmen in Mexico. And there are no attacks.
The tiger shark has slender marks similars to the lines of tigers, hence its name.
When it is juvenile, these marks are round and not vertical. They change when it grows.
