First, there was the low powered eel
if it "evolved" to electrocute things, it would die from the shock.
it couldn't have "evolved" the ability to withstand electric shocks, because it wouldn't have needed to till it started electrocuting things.
Hopefully, we'll have a discussion of Electric Eel evolution, but it's probably not going to involve me.
My comment - What if it evolved its electric generation capability and its withstanding electric shock ability at the same time? Why would electric shock resistance have to be evolved later?
it must have been created with both at the same time, or they all would have died.
Or it evolved both at the same time.
