Narrow-lined Puffer

Found singly over mud, sand, and in seagrass beds, in silty areas of sheltered estuaries, shallow lagoons, and seaward reefs.
They feed nocturnally on benthic invertebrates.

The bodies of Pufferfish are covered in a toxic mucus, if the skin or flesh is consumed it can be fatal to humans.
When threatened they will puff up like a football to deter predators.
