The Amazing World Of Flyingfish

"If you travel the open ocean anywhere in the tropics, you are very likely to see flyingfish. These beautifully colored 'ocean butterflies' shoot out of the water and sail on majestic, winglike pectoral fins to escape from predators such as dolphins, swordfish, and tuna. Some can travel for more than six hundred feet per flight. Yet despite their prevalence in warm ocean waters and their vital role in the tropical food chain, surprisingly little is known about flyingfish--more than 60 species are said to exist, but nobody is sure of the number. This beautifully illustrated book presents flyingfish as you've never seen them before."--Amazon.com.
