@Cottonmouth255 for your fourth question while khezu does and can get its food from the caves they live in as seen in it's ecology video. I believe they are like bats and while they spend a majority of their lives in the caves they have to go outside to obtain their food and risk coming into contact with large predators like tigrex and abiorugu. This is probrably why over time khezu gained their electrical abilities to defend themselves though they are still capable of being killed by said predators via ambush. Also on the subject of khezu's electrical abilities and why they are able to live in moist environments is most likely because like electric eels their skin has a high electrical resistance and the duration of said electric discharges are short enough to not cause any pain or discomfort to the wyvern.
