Spitting archerfish shoot at prey above and beneath the water

The archerfish is a truly exceptional hunter. Not only can these predators launch themselves out of the water to snatch insects, but specialised mouthparts allow them to shoot bullet-like jets of water to dislodge their prey. They're the only fish in the world with this unique water-pistol ability. Footage from ‘Speed Kills: Desert’ (available free in selected territories on Rakuten TV and LG)⁣ | Earth Touch TV

🐟Archerfish (Toxotes jaculatrix) belongs to the phylum chordata and the family is toxotidae. Archerfish are known for their unique hunting behavior, where they shoot a stream of water from their mouth to bring down insects and small animals living above the water's surface. This remarkable ability allows them to catch prey that would otherwise be out of reach.
