Kia Ora everyone
Today Don an eel scientist came to visit us to talk about eels. he told us loads of information.
- females are bigger than males
- when they eat they grab the skin then they start spinning
- the oldest eel 112 years old ,wow!
- they can swim backwards and forwards
- long fin eels are cannibals
- eels have their nostrils on top of their mouth
- eels eat small birds like ducklings
- females lay up to 70- 20,000 eggs!
- they swallow their food whole
That was a very interesting chat with him, I took lots of information from him and I loved finding out things and getting them confirmed.
The biggest eel people have ever found
