Should you be scared of a moray eel? Ask poet Kimiko Hahn (“From ‘the Evolution of Feeding’”), and compare Meta and Wainwright’s article on raptorial jaws (https://t.co/RMAw4jqJhw).

Often in biology the truth is stranger than fiction. The pharyngeal (throat) jaws of the Moray eel are extendable, like the famous Xenomorphs in the @AlienAnthology films. It’s thought to have evolved as an alternative to suction feeding https://t.co/pp2jZ

@jrossibarra @plantpollinator When your throat opens wide And there's more teeth inside That’s a moray (Mehta & @PeterWainwrig15) https://t.co/s79tv4XseW https://t.co/SC2U1rdhrJ

@Death2Mosquitos @CMDonatelli @ChrisDPiazza @Sternarchella @Karly_Cohen Yes!!! Most fishes you can think of have throat jaws, but the moray eel ones are especially nuts because they can lunge forward to grab prey trapped in the oral jaws (aka normal jaws).
