Rarotonga Fish Survive Out Of Water

Leap onto land saves fish from being eaten

Fish on the South Pacific island of Rarotonga have evolved the ability to survive out of water and leap about on the rocky shoreline because this helps them escape predators in the ocean. The new study is the first to examine the pressures driving fish out of water and shows the ocean is an enemy-filled environment for the little blennies. Ref. Source 4l.
