This kind of fish is called flying fish and is famous for "flying". Flying fish have a unique appearance. Its pectoral fin is very long, extending to the tail end, much like the wings of birds. Flying fish can jump out of the water for more than ten meters, stay in mid-air for more than 40 seconds, and the farthest flight distance can reach about 400 meters. This kind of fish is not big, most of them are only the size of a palm. In the sea, it is really insignificant, there are 60 big ones.
Actually, the flying ability of flying fish is of little significance. It's just a way to escape, it can only survive. When it finds danger in the water, it just runs. Flying fish don't just jump out of the water. They can only use flying skills if they are attacked or stimulated by the noise of cargo ship modules. But the flying fish is not soaring, it feels as if it is flapping its fins, but actually it is just gliding.
Flying fish can't escape the fate of being caught and killed even if they learn to fly. Although the speed of flying fish in the water can reach 15 meters per second, this swimming speed is definitely ranked first in the deep sea, but in the deep sea, the nemesis of flying fish is not only more than it, but also stronger than it. They are not only taller, but also faster, such as swordfish, swordfish and bluefin tuna (the speed of swordfish can reach 52 meters per second).
Even if flying fish fly out of the water, there are their nemesis in the sky. Once they fly out of the water, the frigate birds will wait for them in midair. Coupled with hunting them, they are really under siege. Fortunately, however, the breeding rate of flying fish is very strong, which is also the key reason why they can survive so far.
