June 25, 2024 Why Aren't Fish Electrocuted During Lightning Storms?
When lightning strikes a body of water, the electric charge primarily spreads out across the surface. This dispersion happens because water, while a good conductor, distributes the electricity quickly over its surface area. As a result, the intensity of the electrical current decreases rapidly with depth. Fish typically inhabit deeper waters where the electrical effects of lightning strikes are significantly weakened, providing them with natural protection. Additionally, fish may instinctively dive deeper when sensing disturbances in the water, further reducing their risk of being affected by the electrical charge. This combination of rapid dissipation of electricity and the natural behaviors of fish helps explain why they are not electrocuted during lightning storms.
