Barracuda
Barracudas are primarily fish eaters, preying on such smaller fishes as
mullets, anchovies, and grunts. They are esteemed as sport fishes, and
the smaller forms are also valued as food. In certain seas, however,
they may become impregnated with a toxic sybstance that produces a form of poisoning known as cigutera
Barracudas are often regarded as bold and inquisitive, and large ones
are regarded as fearsome fishes, potentially dangerous to humans. The
threat, though probably exaggerated, is real; the great barracuda is
known to have been involved in attacks on swimmers.
