Friendly Dragon : Petting a Large, Friendly Moray Eel

Описание: The yellowmargin moray eel, also called the yellow edged moray eel, or speckled eel, is common in Pacific Ocean tropics. Though usually with yellow eyes, those in New Caledonia often have blue eyes, like this one. Their streamlined bodies allow them to hunt in crevasses and reef structures with ease. They can grow up to about 8 ft long (2.5m), and their large, powerful jaws and sharp teeth help them grasp prey like reef fish and octopus. Moray eels open and close their mouths to move water through their gills for respiration. This can look threatening to divers, but in fact, eels are generally shy creatures and rarely attack, only doing so if they feel threatened. As you can see here, this particular moray seems to crave personal contact, enjoying it as Samiy Diver takes a moment from his dive to caress the gentle creature. Many underwater creatures, like eels, rays, and sharks, scare people, who think they are ferocious and dangerous. This is generally not true. Hopefully this video can help change perceptions of people so that they will want to protect our oceans.
