Description: Lionfish have spines protruding from their back, underside, and pelvis. They
use these spines for self-defense. It is a useful mechanism, especially
considering these spines are highly venomous.
This venom is a neuromuscular toxin akin to the toxicity level of cobra venom.
Lionfish are a ravenous species. If something fits in their mouth, they will eat it.
They have a special adaptation to help them accommodate their immense
appetite.
