The Jelzap is an aquatic predator made of electrically bound skeletal halves. The Jelzap's brain is located in the upper half of its body, while the heart and digestive tract occupy the lower half. Linked only by electrical impulses, the two halves somehow function effectively enough to launch the Jelzap to the top of Tallon IV's aquatic food chain.

A somewhat harmless creature with a very obvious weakpoint. When a Jelzap opens its "mouth," lock on and fire a Missile at it to turn it to jelly. Jelzaps will make static appear on your visor if you're too close, so try to kill them from a distance.
