Electric eels can't beat sea snakes, maybe it's the species. There are many species of electric eels, some of which can emit a strong voltage and corona the sea snake. Sea snakes can't beat electric eels in this situation. But there are also some species that can release very weak voltage, which is not enough to corona the sea snake. They are very weak after the discharge, if they can not corona the sea snake, they may be eaten by the sea snake. In addition, if the sea snake encounters a large electric eel which is very weak after the discharge, it can also hit it.
Can an eel beat a sea snake? Why not?

1. can the electric eel fight the sea snake

The electric eel is a kind of creature that can discharge electricity, they will discharge electricity when they hunt for food and when they encounter enemies to defend themselves. Moreover, among the creatures that can discharge electricity, the electric eel can emit relatively high voltage. Sea snakes are creatures that live in the sea, named for their resemblance to snakes, and they are poisonous.

However, there are individual differences in the voltage they emit, and some large electric eels can even emit 800V voltage, so they can corona many living things around them. Even large terrestrial organisms and humans can be electrocuted. Therefore, if the electric eel encounters a sea snake, it can defeat them by discharging electricity. However, not all electric eels can emit such a strong electricity, some small electric eels can release electricity is relatively weak. Then, after their electricity has been discharged, they will enter a weaker state, at which time they are generally no match for sea snakes.

2. why the electric eel can't beat the sea snake

As mentioned above, although some small electric eels can discharge electricity, the electricity they can release is relatively weak, and sometimes they can't subdue the sea snake with one hit. The eel discharge can only last for a short period of time, sometimes only a dozen seconds. After an electrical discharge, they are very weak and take a very long time to recover. Sea snakes are shaped like snakes, and they are venomous, and very venomous, much more venomous than many terrestrial snake species. If the eel discharges the electricity without killing or stunning the sea snake, the sea snake will take advantage of the opportunity to eat the eel.
