Houndfish
Tylosurus crocodilus
Adult houndfish patrol warm tropical and subtropical coastal waters, especially reefs, lagoons, and open shallows. They pursue small fish near the surface, seizing them with their elongated, tooth-lined jaws. Their streamlined shape allows sudden high-speed bursts and occasional leaps from the water.
