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.
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.
Some sharks can stay motionless on the sand (white tips reef sharks, nurse sharks, etc.).
These sharks don't have to swim to bring oxygen to their gills like other sharks (grey, hammerheads tc.)
Mammals have a horizontal tail.
Fishes have a vertical fin.
