Hungry sharks tear the lion fish

Although the lion has many poisonous spines, the shark still eats as fast as lightning without being stabbed.

Diver Chad Sinden catches lionfish as bait for sharks off the Bahamas, on August 27. When he held out the skewer, a shark quickly rushed to bite and graze the lion fish. In the end, the latter is more fortunate and wins the prey.

Spines of poisonous lion fish can cause pain, respiratory failure but it does not matter to sharks.

Lionfish (scientific name Pterois) is a poisonous marine genus, which lives in the Indian Ocean and Pacific Ocean. They are invasive animals in the western Atlantic, Caribbean and Mediterranean waters. Spines of poisonous lionfish can cause pain, sweating, respiratory failure, and even paralysis.

"You can see sharks try it a few times to grab lions. They have learned how to eat without stabbing. Sometimes there are 20 sharks following me and waiting patiently. I've dived a thousand. times with these fish and become familiar with them. However, you don't try it yourself , " Sinden said.

"I can dive freely, scuba dive or snorkel and sharks and they don't mind at all. But if I take a skewer, they will immediately recognize it. They contact food. with this item, not the diver. Sharks are much smarter than we think, " he explained.
