The difference between pufferfish and pufferfish

2023-12-17 12:42:43 227

The pufferfish (also known as the pufferfish) and the pufferfish both belong to the family Pufferidae, and they are usually freshwater or marine creatures, but they differ in many ways.

living environment:

Agouti (Acanthus): Generally lives in marine environments, but some species also live in freshwater environments.

Pufferfish: usually inhabit tropical and subtropical waters, but some also live in freshwater environments.

toxicity:

Agonifish (Spurfish): They are often highly venomous and their spores and parts of their guts can be toxic to humans and other animals. These toxins can pose a serious threat to those who consume them and require special care before consumption.

Pufferfish: Pufferfish is a notoriously poisonous fish, with its guts and ovaries containing strong neurotoxins, requiring special handling before cooking, otherwise it could pose a risk to humans (and even to the chefs themselves).

Morphological characteristics:

Agouti (Agagus porcupine): usually has spikes or spines, is larger, and is covered with spikes.

Pufferfish: Usually small in size and without prominent spikes.

feeding habits:

Agouti (Spurfish): Feeds on shellfish, crustaceans, etc.

Pufferfish: Feeds mainly on molluscs and small invertebrates.

It should be noted that although the two have different living environments and physical characteristics, they are both poisonous and pose a potential threat to those who eat them. Therefore special care is required when handling and consuming.
