Eels belong to the taxonomic Order Anguilliformes, which consists of around 800 species. They have one of the most distinctive fish shapes, with a snakelike, elongated body, lack of pelvic fins and a fused dorsal fin which runs almost the whole length of the fish. By flexing their long bodies, eels move in a wavelike swimming pattern, and are perfectly capable of swimming backwards just as well as forwards.
