    Electric eels are capable of generating powerful shocks that can immobilize prey. Discharges emitted from volleys into the environment can cause prey in hiding to experience involuntary muscle twitching causing it to be revealed to the eel. The revelation of hidden prey allows the eel to continue its attack and go into predatory strike mode. This study (Catania, 2014) sets out to show that the powerful shocks produced by eels activate motor neurons in their prey causing muscle contractions in the
