User:Idm123/Caudal luring

Article Draft
I will update the lead section to remove uncited information and to provide clarity in the writing style. I will add important information in the snakes section. The section for pelican eels simply states that it is believed to occur, without any explanation - which is not true. However, it does occur in other species of eels and I will add a section to explain this.

Lead
I will replace the first paragraph with the following paragraph to add clarity.

Caudal luring is a form of aggressive mimicry characterized by the waving or wriggling of the predator's tail. This movement attracts small animals who mistake the tail for a small worm or small animal. When the animal approaches to prey on the worm-like tail, the predator will strike. This behavior is seen in snakes, primarily juveniles, sharks and eels.

I will also remove the second paragraph as it seems unnecessary and irrelevant, as well as not including any citations.

Article body
Under the snakes section, I will add the following to the second paragraph.

However, this explanation has been contested. Experimental manipulation of Sistrurus miliarius’ tail color to make the tail match the rest of the juvenile’s body revealed no significant difference in foraging success

Other section: The original article contains an other section with one sentence (which is a false sentence). I will be removing this. This is what I will add instead:

Eels

Caudal luring is suspected to occur in the family Saccopharyngidae. The caudal organs of these eels are luminous and equipped with filaments that would facilitate luring. These eels prey solely on relatively large fishes, suggesting the use of a lure to trap their prey.
