It is one of the fastest fish in the ocean. They have a long bill that looks similar to a sword which allows it to slice at its prey. They don't spear it like people often think.

Whales are known to imitate human, but can it produce human sounds?
A driver went to the bottom of a water body inhabited
by the whales and distinctly heard the word "Out" . Not once not twice , but five times. It took him a while to figure out that it was whales who wanted him out.

Star Fish:-They typically have five arms but some spices have many more. The sun star for instance have about forty arms. A star fish can regenerate damages or lost arms.
