The Flying Gurnard is a fish that can also fly. They are often observed walking slowly on the ocean floor on their fins. They usually can be seen in shallow water, this is often by the shore. They have these huge pectoral fins. When they feel they are attacked, they spread these fins and move rapidly through the water almost sometimes at flying speeds.
It occurs from East Africa to Polynesia. In Australia it is recorded around the northern half of the country from the central coast of Western Australia to southern New South Wales.

Fangtooth Fish

The Fangtooth Fish is said to be also called the "ogrefish." The head is large with a huge maw and appears haggard, riddled with mucus cavities delineated by serrated edges and covered by a thin skin. The eyes are relatively small, set high on the head; the entire body is a dark brown to black and is strongly compressed laterally, deep anteriorly and progressively more slender towards the tail. The fins are small, simple, and spineless; the scales are embedded in the skin and take the form of thin plates.
A scary specimen indeed.
