In Case You’ve Never Seen a Puffer Fish Releasing Water Before

by twistedsifter

 

One of the Puffer fish’s (Tetraodontidae) defense mechanisms is the ability to fill its extremely elastic stomach with water (or air when outside the water) making it much larger and nearly spherical in shape.

In this video we see a puffer releasing a remarkable amount of water it had filled itself up with. Make sure you watch until the end!
