These fish are already dead, they just don’t know it yet. It’s the incredible frogfish. It has a spine that sticks out of its head that looks like a fishing rod, with a worm-like part attached to it that lures in prey. They can also change the texture and color of their skin to blend in with their surroundings. When hunting, the frogfish strategically positions itself among corals and rocks, utilizing its fishing rod-like spine to lure prey. then in 1\6000th of a second, it strikes. That speed comes from it being able to make its mouth 12 times bigger, and opening it quickly, creating a vacuum forcing water to rush to its mouth pulling the prey in.
