Electric Ray
Electric rays can unleash a powerful electric current to stun their prey or shock would-be predators into choosing another victim. Some large species, like the Atlantic torpedo, can generate an incredible 220-volt blast. The kidney-shaped organs that produce electricity can be seen on either side of the ray’s head. Divers are advised to give these rays a wide berth—some species can be confrontational.
