description: 'Giant moray eels dwell in warm, tropical waters and build lairs in narrow,
  twisting caves made of coral. Their size, speed, and powerful bite make them dangerous
  to divers and fishermen. Giant moray eels have rubbery hides that secrete a layer
  of mucus, making them difficult to harm with some weapons.
