Fish Friday: The Sniper of Fish

awesome science, Observations, Uncategorized Comments Off

Happy Friday folks!

In the spirit of the end of the week, I”m going to keep it short ‘n snappy today. Consider it Fish Friday!

Animals can do some pretty incredible things. Recently the stingray has been in the news for its ability to use water as a tool to flush out its prey. Back in the day (now I sound like an old woman), tool use was a trait that only humans were thought to have. We couldn’t have been more wrong, and I’m loving that we’re starting to open our eyes to the amazing feats of animals.

But stingrays aren’t the only fish out there to use water as a tool. There’s another species out there that uses water in a way that just might blow your mind. You have to see it to believe it.

Ladies and gentlemen, I give you, the Archer Fish.  Words don’t do it justice, so grab a cuppa and enjoy watching the sniper of the fish world.

For those of you who haven’t yet entered my Great Goodall Giveaway, swing by here to check it out – only one week left! Who doesn’t like free stuff? :)

Stay wild and I’ll see you Monday!
