puffer-fish-self-defense

The Puffer Fish, or Blowfish blows itself up to defend itself against its enemies. When it is threatened, the Puffer Fish will turn itself into a large ball covered with sharp spines. Hopefully, the enemy is unable to swallow the inedible ball and swims off.

Almost all Puffer Fish contain a toxin called tetrodotoxin, which is foul tasting and often lethal to fish. To humans, tetrodotoxin is 1,200 times more poisonous than cyanide. There is enough toxin in one Puffer Fish to kill 30 adult humans, and an antidote does not exist.

Be careful..

If it deflated itself when it was out of water would it go flying around the room like a balloon?

The puffer is actually stressed and by puffing it up out side of water can actually kill it.
