Useless facts: Today: The fish that lives on land!

Useless fact of the week

Fish and Water, that´s a common pair of words, as all fish live underwater. But that is not the whole truth. Believe it or not, some fish are able to live outside this wet substance. One of those fish is the species of "mudskipper". This cute little fish can save some water in his gills and is able live outside the water for a limited amount of time. As swimming in air is not that easy, the mudskipper jump just like frogs to move forward, which can be really entertaining to watch.  What looks like a clumsy way of moving is an effective way in reality. They could even climb  precise on big rocks or root or whatever comes in their way. When raised captured, many owner trained their fish even to be tame and jump right in the warm hands of their owner. 

I hope you enjoyed my first part of my new series.
