Easy For the Puffer Fish to BaIk It's
Natural Enemies.
The puffer fish affords novel exam
pie of the way nature sometimes works
to protect her creatures. The many
different species inhabit all tropical and
other warm seas and certain large riv
ers. Few Of them reach length of
more than two feet.
The peculiar characteristic common
to all Of them is their ability to initiate
themselves with air or water until they
become almost spherical in shape The
air or water that fills the abdomen or
the esophageal sac is retained by a
valve in the throat and can be dis.
charged almost instantly.
! \ few good sized soup were placed in
one Of the exhibition tanks of the New
York Geological society with dozen
buffers about two inches long. The
hungry soup at once attacked the puff
ers, but in an instant every puffcr in
fiated itself so completely with water
that it became almost globular All the
soup could do was to knock them about
like toy balloons, too big to be swal-
lowed, too smooth to afford any hold
to the jaws.
Puffers that become frightened near
the surface Of the sea and are inflated
