Juvenile puffer filefish 🐡
Similar to other pufferfish species, puffer filefish possess the ability to inflate their bodies when threatened. They do so by rapidly ingesting water or air, puffing up to scare predators away and make themselves appear larger and more challenging to swallow. The spines covering their bodies also serve as a defense mechanism, making them less palatable or even harmful to potential predators 🐠
