Electric Eel

This electricity-producing fish lives in the rivers of South America and has special cells called electrolytes that help it produce electricity of a high voltage for several minutes continuously. It uses this electricity to stun prey but when humans are attacked, it may result in heart failure because of the very strong electric shock. Even if the person does not immediately die, there is a high chance of temporary paralysis and drowning as a result. Attacks by electric eels that cause death are rare, but this fish has the potential to kill. It is also one of the most dangerous amazon rainforest animals in the world.
