Barracudas
22 species · 1 families
Barracudas are slender, lightning-fast predators of warm seas, instantly recognised by their elongated body, jutting lower jaw and impressive, dagger-like teeth. They hunt from ambush and accelerate explosively to seize prey fish. Young fish often swim in schools, while large individuals patrol reefs alone. Their silvery flank can flash brightly as they attack. The great barracuda is a curious, imposing presence that often comes to inspect divers up close.
