In the meantime, according to researcher Moriarty, when it comes to fascinating fish, ‘the eel is really outstanding.’
Wat fassinerende visse betref, is ‘die paling’ nietemin volgens navorser Christopher Moriarty ‘werklik uitstaande’.

And an estimated 2,500 species of fish —including electric eels and piranhas— patrol the rivers and streams.
En ’n geraamde 2 500 visspesies—waaronder sidderale en piranhas—patrolleer die riviere en strome.

Seabirds with glands that desalt seawater; fish and eels that generate electricity; fish, worms, and insects that produce cold light; bats and dolphins that use sonar; wasps that make paper; ants that build bridges; beavers that build dams; snakes that have built-in thermometers; pond insects that use snorkels and diving bells; octopuses that use jet propulsion; spiders that make seven kinds of webs and make trapdoors, nets, and lassos and that have babies who are balloonists, traveling thousands of miles [kilometers] at great heights; fish and crustaceans that use flotation tanks like submarines; and birds, insects, sea turtles, fish, and mammals that perform amazing feats of migration —abilities beyond science’s power to explain.
Seevoëls met kliere wat seewater ontsout; visse en palings wat elektrisiteit opwek; visse, wurms en insekte wat koue lig afgee; vlermuise en dolfyne wat sonar gebruik; wespe wat papier maak; miere wat brûe bou; bewers wat damme bou; slange wat ingeboude termometers het; insekte in damme wat snorkels en duikerklokke gebruik; seekatte wat straalaandrywing gebruik; spinnekoppe wat sewe soorte spinnerakke maak, asook valdeure, nette en lasso’s, en kleintjies het wat ballonreisigers is en duisende kilometers op groot hoogtes aflê; visse en skaaldiere wat flottasietenks soos duikbote gebruik en voëls, insekte, seeskilpaaie, visse en soogdiere wat verstommende migrasiewondere verrig—vermoëns wat nie deur die wetenskap verduidelik kan word nie.

Christopher Moriarty of the Department of the Marine in Ireland explains that while most fish show very distinct eggs, the eel shows no sign of even a small egg.
Christopher Moriarty van die Departement van Seelewe in Ierland verduidelik dat hoewel die meeste visse se eiers baie duidelik sigbaar is, is daar by die paling geen teken van selfs ’n klein eier nie.

If it avoids predators, such as cormorants, seals, dolphins, and even killer whales, it will arrive there and feed on certain large zooplankton and sand eels, as well as herring, capelin, and other fish.
As hy vyande soos kormorante, robbe, dolfyne en selfs moordvisse vermy, sal hy daar aankom en van sekere groot soöplankton en sand-ale sowel as harings, lodde en ander visse lewe.

There are creatures of all different shapes and sizes: the occasional loggerhead turtle, the French angelfish, the surgeonfish, the needlefish, the parrot fish, the huge sea bass, and the moray eel.
Daar is diere van alle vorme en groottes: nou en dan ’n grootkopseeskilpad, die Franse engelvis, die doktervis, die naaldvis, die papegaaivis, die groot seebaars en die bontpaling.

The once teeming fish had finally been driven out, apart from a few eels which were able to survive because of their ability to breathe air direct from the surface.
Die visse wat eens volop was, is uiteindelik uitgedryf, behalwe ’n paar palings wat aan die lewe kon bly omdat hulle lug direk van die oppervlak kan inasem.

They are not to be confused with electric fish that produce much higher voltages, such as electric rays and eels, which stun either in defense or in the capture of prey.
Hulle moet nie verwar word met elektriese visse wat baie hoër stroomspannings opwek nie, soos sidderrôe en -ale (elektriese pylstertvisse en palings), wat hulle vyande en prooi skok.

U.S.News & World Report described it this way: “Reefs are the marine equivalent of tropical rain forests, teeming with a profusion of living forms: undulating sea fans and sea whips, feathery crinoids, neon-hued fish and sponges, shrimp, lobster and starfish, as well as fearsome sharks and giant moray eels.
U.S.News & World Report het dit soos volg beskryf: “Riwwe is die mariene-ekwivalent van tropiese reënwoude, wat wemel van lewensvorme: golwende seewaaiers, veeragtige seelelies, helderkleurige visse en sponse, garnale, krewe en stervisse sowel as vreesaanjaende haaie en reusebontpalings.

Biologists discerned for the first time that a slim, transparent fish called leptocephalus, with a tiny head and a body shaped like a willow leaf, metamorphosed, or changed form, to become a tiny transparent larva called a glass eel.
Bioloë het vir die eerste keer besef dat ’n dun, deurskynende vissie, wat leptocephalus genoem word, met ’n klein koppie en ’n liggaam wat soos ’n wilgerblaar gevorm is, metamorfoseer, of ’n gedaantewisseling ondergaan, om ’n piepklein, deurskynende larwe te word wat ’n glasaal genoem word.
