The trick here is that eels are exactly the right shape to fit inside a snake and sea snakes are highly venomous. Apparently they've learned to hunt what you would THINK would be deadly dangerous prey, moray eels. They approach them tailfirst, bite to inject poison, and so they eeel doesn't float or swim away they just start swallowing. The result, as seen here, is sometimes the eel gets away and sometimes a snake ends up with a really big meal. 83
