-Tends to rest on its side, with both eyes facing upwards.
-Feeding difficulties common, due to twisted malformed jaws.
-Extreme cranial case distortion causes severe intracranial pressure, often resulting in eyes bulging out of sockets.
-Compression of brain leads to low intelligence and various neurological issues.
-Neurological issues exacerbated by its own electric currents, generated by highly developed electric organs.
