Did you know that fish can fly? YES! There is a special species among the fishes that have wings and can fly.
The Exocoetidae or flying fish are a marine fish family comprising about 50 species grouped in 7 to 9 genera.

Their most striking feature is their pectoral fins, which are unusually large, and enable the fish to take short gliding flights through air, above the surface of the water, in order to escape from predators.
