Eels are unique for their elongated, snake-like bodies and lack of pelvic fins, which allow them to navigate through tight spaces in their aquatic environments. They have a remarkable ability to migrate, with species like the European eel traveling thousands of miles from freshwater habitats to spawn in the Sargasso Sea. Eels are also known for their slippery skin, which is covered in a layer of mucus that aids in movement and offers protection from parasites. Additionally, some species can breathe through their skin and absorb oxygen from water, making them highly adaptable to various environments.
