    Default The fluffy monster

    ID: Puffer fish

    Mumbai is a very unique metropolitan, especially for the nature lovers, with an abundance of bio diversity not only on land and sky, but also along the shores. One example being this unique sighting, a puffer fish, generally notorious for aggressively biting with its front teeth and also being toxic, with few of them being one of the most poisonous vertebrae. This chap, along with other one, seemed to be caught by some fishermen, who just abandoned them on the rocky shore after playing with it as a bouncing ball. Some kids had moved them into a small water lock along the shore, where these beauties seemed to be taking some time off and giving us an opportunity to frame them.

    Nice to see this species. It didn't bite the fishermen playing with it ? Seems it was quite close. How big is it? Thanks for sharing.

    Very interesting. I was initially surprised by the photo as one can't expect to see puffer fish in a beach walk. Do you have a wider shot? Thanks for sharing.

    Cheers,
