Scorpionfish
Scorpionfish are fish that live in the ocean and are very good at hiding themselves. They have special fins on their backs that look like little spikes or poison darts, kind of like how superheroes have special tools to fight bad guys.
When scorpionfish hunt for food, they don't swim around like other fish. Instead, they sit really still on the bottom of the ocean floor and wait for something yummy to swim by. When their prey comes close enough, they make a quick strike with their special fins and grab their meal.
Scorpionfish can be dangerous to humans because of the poison in their fins. If a person accidentally steps on one or touches it, the poison can cause a lot of pain and swelling. So it's important to be very careful if you ever see a scorpionfish in the wild!
