Dangerous Sea Creatures
They may be beautiful, but these sea creatures can be deadly.
It may look harmless enough, but the striped surgeonfish of the Indo-Pacific sports a venomous spine. Scientists estimate that 50,000 people are injured a year from contact with the world's 1,200 species of venomous fish. The poisons are also being investigated for use in new drugs. Other sea creatures that can pack a punch include the stinging yellow sea anemone, "flying" needlefish that become airborne daggers, and, of course, great white sharks.
危险的海洋动物
一些海洋动物看起来虽然很美，但却带有致命性。照片展示了印度洋-太平洋海域的刺尾鱼，身上布满条纹，表面上一副不会对人构成威胁的模样。据科学家估计，每年有多达5万人在接触世界上1200种有毒鱼类后遭受损伤。科学家正对它们的毒素进行研究，以用于研制新药。除了有毒动物外，其他一些海洋动物同样具有危险性，例如长满刺的黄色海葵、颌针鱼以及大白鲨，其中的颌针鱼就像是一把飞行的匕首。
