Pufferfish

A slow, ungainly swimmer meets any threat by inflating into a spine-studded ball, agonizing to grab and worse to bite down on.

commonAnimalAquatic

A pufferfish is a slow, ungainly swimmer that answers any threat by ballooning into a bristling sphere of venomous spines—painful to grab, painful to eat, painful to be near.
