Flying fish are unique animals that are able to fly or glide above the water surface for short distances. This amazing feat is made possible by their large pectoral fins, which they use to “fly” out of the water. Flying fish can reach speeds of up to 37 miles per hour and can cover distances of up to 655 feet. Despite their name, flying fish don’t actually spend much time in the air. They only take to the air when they are threatened by predators, such as dolphins, tuna, and swordfish. When they feel threatened, flying fish will make a sudden leap out of the water and glide away from their predators using their large pectoral fins. Flying fish usually eat small crustaceans, such as shrimp and krill. They also eat small fish, squid, and jellyfish. Flying fish are found in all tropical and subtropical oceans. They are especially abundant in the Caribbean Sea. Flying fish can grow to be up to 16 inches long. They are usually greenish or blue in color with silver scales. Flying fish lay thousands of eggs at a time. The eggs float on the surface of the water until they hatch into larvae. The larvae then grow into adults and take to the air themselves. Flying fish are an important food source for other animals, such as birds, tuna, and billfish. Flying fish roe is also considered a delicacy in some cultures.

Exocoetidae diet mainly on plankton In the past, a few water parks have attempted it, but because flying fish need space to gather speed, they failed to fly and amuse the paying guests.

Flying fish are, however, an integral part of the ecosystem. Anything that’s eaten this much and by this many animals is important for holding the system together. This makes it even more important to protect their habitats. Flying fish have been recorded ‘flying’ for up to 45 seconds. That’s almost four times as long as the Wright brothers’ first flight. In flying fish, the pectoral fins are enormous. These are attached to the ‘chest’ of the fish and used to glide. Given their ability to fly, you’d think it would be hard to catch flying fish, but it’s actually easy if you’re a human.

After a few days, the fish are born with whiskers near their mouths to help them blend in among the plants. From the moment of their birth, they are largely on their own, and many will end up perishing from predators. They gain the ability to fly after reaching about two inches in length. The average lifespan of these fish is approximately five years. Fishing and CookingThere’s a family of fish who have a unique strategy for avoiding predation. They’ve taken to the air. These are the exocoetidae, or Flying fish, and they are quite extraordinary in their abilities. As it happens, they need to be; they’re hunted by almost everything larger than they are. a b c d e f g Kutschera, U. (2005).

Most species tend to concentrate in tropical and subtropical waters. They are very rare up north because colder temperatures appear to impede the muscular function necessary to glide through the air.

It’s way more challenging to control the fish with it. We’d recommend the default scheme for your first playthrough.

A little less than 2 years ago, as part of a game jam, a handful of Bossians were exploring a flapping mechanic to navigate seagulls. Out of curiosity they applied it to a fish model and asked themselves: Wouldn’t it be fun to navigate through the world this way from a fish’s perspective? Could we build bridges between I Am Bread and Surgeon Simulator and this game to create a wider universe?
