The sailfish is one of the fastest fish in the sea! Sailfish have been clocked swimming at speeds up to 68 miles per hour! These speedsters use their long bill to swipe and stab at prey, stunning it. Scientists think their large, namesake sail may help to enhance the accuracy of their bill movements by acting as a keel to increase stability or as a fence to herd their prey.
