Indo-Pacific Sailfish (Istiophorus platypterus)
It is believed that the sailfish’s dorsal fins are used in temperature regulation. Their ‘sails’ have a large network of blood vessels, and are often raised at or near surface waters before or after high speed bursts. Sailfish have been known to travel up to speeds of 109 km/h (68mph).

The sarcastic fringehead (Neoclinus blanchardi) is a footlong fish that lives off the Pacific coast of North America. When unthreatened, the fringehead’s visage is fairly unremarkable. But if a marine predator (or stray human hand) attempts to dislodge a fringehead from its crevasse, the fish will race into action, brandishing its frightening Predator-like mouth at the interloper.
And things get even stranger when two sarcastic fringeheads get embroiled in a turf war. How strange? Two words: “mouth wrestling.” Are you brave enough to behold the angriest make-out party in the animal kingdom?
